(The following is an unedited letter submitted by a reader). SUBJECT: Officer Lenny Nieves Sr., Badge # 246, DATE: 1/20/10, To: The Lakewood Scoop: As a resident of the Lakewood community, we would like to commend an outstanding public servant, Officer Lenny Nieves. He makes every effort to perform his duties in a competent, courteous, and professional manner. Officer Nieves exceeds the expectations of the public by providing exceptional service that surpasses above and beyond his call of duty.
 He personifies the attributes of compassion, courage and commitment, and we, the Lakewood community, are privileged to have him on our force.
His dedication to our community knows no bounds. This past Friday night, our family experienced a medical emergency and Officer Nieves selflessly dedicated many hours of his personal time. His efficiency and kind demeanor made all the difference. It is no wonder that many in our community respect Officer Nieves for his sensitive and generous nature!
We wish to publicly acknowledge our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to Officer Lenny Nieves. We are an extremely fortunate community to be protected by officers as fine as him.
*** A tremendous Thank You to Moshe Heineman for arranging the ordeal and putting it all together. Between dedicating many hours until minutes to shabbos and lending his car-
He was a real lifesaver! His good heart and connections made it all happen!!!　
Sincerely,
An Appreciative Lakewood Resident
