WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER photo tribute contest

Patrolman Jeremy Hubbard (EOW: 8/10/2010)

Trisha’s picture, honoring her husband, Patrolman Jeremy Hubbard (EOW: 8/10/2010), received the most votes in the Memorial Fund’s WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER photo tribute contest.

Patrolman Hubbard was tragically killed in the line of duty when he lost control of his patrol car while in pursuit of a suspect. He served with the Cowden, IL Police Department for three years.

Trisha’s photo features her sons, Dylan and Jordan Hubbard. The family is planning to attend National Police Week this May 2011.

Thanks again to everyone who participated in the Memorial Fund’s WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER photo tribute contest. The participation, creativity, and support for our fallen law enforcement heroes were truly amazing.

Dear Supporter,

One month from now, on May 13th, over 20,000 law enforcement officers, surviving family members, and supporters will gather at the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial to formally dedicate the newly-engraved names of 317 fallen officers at the 23rd Annual Candlelight Vigil. I hope you can join us in person or via our free live webcast starting at 8:00 p.m.

As we prepare to honor our law enforcement officers – especially our fallen heroes – the Memorial Fund is kicking off its 2011 Virtual Candle tribute campaign.

Please join me in honoring these Fallen Heroes and the brave men and women working tirelessly every day to protect our communities by lighting a Virtual Candle to honor a law enforcement officer.

And when you light your candle, please consider making a generous donation of $20.00 or more to help the Memorial engrave each of the 317 names and produce the Candlelight Vigil, in addition to supporting our ongoing officer safety programs.

Our Virtual Candles will burn brightly until the end of the Candlelight Vigil. But our tribute messages will help bring hope and healing long into the future. Please join us now by lighting your Virtual Candle.

Sincerely,
Craig Floyd
Craig W. Floyd
Chairman & CEO

P.S. Please be sure to support the Memorial by contributing today if you can. We certainly need and greatly appreciate your support.
