Two police officers. Twenty-four hours. By suicide….🥺. Two families whose lives have changed forever.
There are moments when words simply are not enough.
My heart goes out to the families, friends, colleagues, and fellow first responders grieving these devastating losses. To every officer, dispatcher, paramedic, firefighter, and emergency worker carrying the weight of these tragedies while still being expected to show up and serve — you do not have to carry that weight alone.
Sometimes the strongest thing we can do is reach out.
If you are struggling, grieving, overwhelmed, or simply need a safe and confidential place to talk, please reach out. My door is open to first responders and their families who need support during this incredibly difficult time.
With deepest compassion to everyone affected.
You spend your lives being there for others. Please allow someone to be there for you, too.
