"Holidays is just a stressful time anyway when you lose people in the line of duty it's even more stressful," said Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson.
"More important than the gifts are showing those families that we haven't forgotten them," said Phil Cline, Executive Director of the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation.
