About the foundation
The Espericueta family established the Speedy Memorial Foundation to honor the memory and legacy of Corporal Joey “Speedy” Espericueta, as he was affectionately known throughout the community. A dedicated police officer with the Mission Police Department, Corporal Espericueta made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty on June 20, 2019.
The Foundation was built upon the values of Honor, Integrity, and Service, ensuring that Speedy’s legacy lives on through education, community involvement, and support for the children of law enforcement officers.
