This National Peace Officers Memorial Day and throughout National Police Week, we want to take a moment to recognize and thank the men of the City of Edmonton, KY Edmonton Police Department and the Metcalfe County Sheriffs Office for the work they do every day for our community.
We work beside these officers day and night. We hear the calls come in. We hear the stress in people’s voices when they’re scared, hurt, angry, or having the worst day of their lives, and we know these officers are the ones answering that call for help.
Folks see the badge and the uniform, but we get to see the people behind them too. The fathers, husbands, friends, and neighbors who miss meals, holidays, sleep, and time with their families and friends to serve ours.
Today especially, we remember the officers across this country who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. Their names and their service will never be forgotten.
To our local officers: thank you for showing up every day for Metcalfe County. Thank you for the long nights, the hard calls, and the weight you carry that most people never see. We’re proud to work alongside you.
Stay safe, and know your community appreciates you more than words can say. 💙🖤
