Each year on Peace Officers Memorial Day, we honor those brave men and women who have been killed in the line of duty. We express our gratitude for the tremendous sacrifices made by our officers and their families.
“The local law enforcement community here in Lamar County has responded to the unique circumstance of providing a memorial service remembering those local officers killed in the line of duty while in the midst of a pandemic,” said Paris Police Chief Bob Hundley.
Law enforcement officers in Lamar County will be holding a Peace Officers Memorial Ceremony at the Love Civic Center, in front of the Eiffel Tower, on Friday, May 15, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
A static display of vehicles from law enforcement agencies in Lamar County will be set around the memorial wreath.
“Due to social distancing guidelines, we ask that you remain in your vehicle on the parking lot and tune to 90.7 FM from which the prayer, remarks, and reading of the fallen’ s names are to be broadcast.”
