Honoring Our Heroes on Law Enforcement Appreciation Day
Today, we take a moment to honor and celebrate the brave men and women who dedicate their lives to protecting and serving our community. Being a police officer is no easy task, and my family and I are proud to stand in support of our brothers and sisters in law enforcement.
This day is special but emotional for me. My father served as a police officer for 36 years, and he passed away on this day three years ago. I miss him every day, but I carry his legacy in my heart. His dedication to service inspires my own passion for serving others and making a difference.
Earlier this week, we hosted Coffee with the Cops, and it was incredible to see so many dedicated individuals—veterans of the force, police officers, detectives, and crime prevention specialists—come together to engage with our community.
As members of the public, it’s vital that we continue to uplift our police officers and remind them that they are appreciated and supported. Not just today, but every day. Putting on the badge and stepping into harm’s way for the safety of others is an act of courage that deserves our gratitude and respect.
To all who serve, thank you. I pledge to always be a champion for law enforcement and to support the vital role you play in our community.
