MEMORIAL-ORLANDO RIVAS

This Senate resolution formally expresses the Illinois Senate's condolences for Orlando Rivas, a parole officer and after-school security guard who passed away in April 2026. The document honors his life by highlighting his 25 years of service in Chicago and his recent dedication to student safety at Buffalo Grove High School, where he tragically died shielding students from a car accident. It also acknowledges his legacy as an organ donor and survivor, noting that he is survived by his wife and four children. The bill concludes by directing that a copy of the resolution be presented to Rivas's family as a gesture of sympathy.
