Rivera, said Abbatiello, “made a difference” during his career with the NYPD, and was a “loving son who wanted to make his parents proud.” He was in his second year of service with the NYPD when he and his partner, Officer Wilbert Mora, 27, were fatally shot on Jan. 21. They were responding to a domestic disturbance. 

Mora died on Jan. 25, after spending four days in the hospital in critical condition. Dolan made a visit to his bedside and prayed for him. 

Mora’s funeral Mass will be celebrated next week, also at St. Patrick’s. 

The child of immigrants from the Dominican Republic, Rivera sought to improve the relationship between his community and the police. Abbatiello told Rivera’s parents that they could be “very proud of your son.” 

“The sting of death is here,” he said. “Truth be told, we still haven’t made sense of their deaths.” 

Thousands, including police officers from around the country, attended Rivera’s funeral.
