It is with deepest
regrets that we now add the following to
the listing:
Wilcox County
Sheriff Robert
Rodgers
EOW 8/29/2023
When we
initially set up this website we attempted to include
all those that had previously lost their lives in
the line of duty and have made every effort to
include additional names as needed. We recently
became aware of two officers whom we missed and apoligize to their family and friends. We now make
those two entries to the listing as follows:
Eastman
Police Department
Patrolman Tim
Smith
EOW 8/13/2016
and
Georgia State
Patrol
Corporal
Michael Douglas Young
EOW 8/29/2006
It is such a small
thing that we offer but must say THANK YOU FOR YOUR
SERVICE!
The year 2016 was a period that saw the loss of
life of many in law enforcement across the U.S. and
especially here in Georgia. We cannot change history
but rather can pay honor to those brave souls and
attempt to put in place deterrents to such actions
in the future. Thankfully our State Legislature and
Governor have moved in that direction.
