Dear Dr. DePaco,
On behalf of the Essex County Sheriff’s Office, please accept our heartfelt gratitude for your extraordinary and continued support of our department—most recently through your generous $10,000 donation toward K-9 dog food for our unit.
Your ongoing partnership is not only deeply appreciated; it is transformative. At a time when public safety agencies face increasing operational challenges, your steadfast commitment ensures that our K-9 partners receive the high-quality nutrition they need to stay healthy, focused, and mission-ready. These dogs are more than assets to our office—they are loyal partners who protect our officers and our community every day. Your generosity directly strengthens their wellbeing and longevity.
We remain equally grateful to the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office for your shared partnership and collaboration. It was an honor to welcome you and K-9 Sergeant Lanzer back to our office—your professionalism, warmth, and consistent investment in law enforcement excellence were once again evident throughout your visit.
Your words stayed with us: that these contributions are not acts of charity, but a responsibility to support those—human and K-9 alike—who serve with integrity and courage. That sentiment is echoed across our agency and reflects the values that guide our mission.
We look forward to continuing this meaningful collaboration. Thank you, Dr. DePaco, for standing with us, for believing in our department, and for your unwavering support of the Essex County Sheriff’s Office.
With gratitude,
Amir Jones
Sheriff Amir D. Jones
