PENSACOLA, Fla. -- A new mural is up at Pensacola's Graffiti Bridge to honor fallen Okaloosa County Corporal Ray Hamilton.
A family friend of Corporal Hamilton reached out to Graffiti Bridge to make it happen.
Corporal Hamilton was shot and killed on Christmas Eve after responding to a domestic violence incident at a home in Fort Walton Beach.
Sophia Ordoqui says Hamilton was a long-time neighbor of her mom.
"Joseph and 'Rodman' both took the time to paint it all for us. To honor Ray Hamilton who's a dear friend, an amazing member of our community, an amazing friend, husband. Just a literal ray or sunshine. And that's where the saying 'be more like Ray' comes from," Ordoqui said.
Graffiti artists started and finished the tribute Sunday.
The top of the mural is painted with his end of watch -- the day he was killed in the line of duty.
