While I was visiting in Fort Worth
Texas a few weeks back I attended an event at Trinity River Trail. I was not prepared for the Police and Fireman
Memorial that was perfectly created, but elated to have the chance to see
it. As I walked through a nicely stone
paved walkway, there stood plaques with stories of these that lost their lives
in the line of duty. Each had their own unique stories of bravery. The stories
were intriguing and heartfelt. This
memorial was dedicated June 5, 2009. The memorial currently lists the names of
39 Firefighters, 3 Fort Worth Deputy Marshals, and 56 Fort Worth Police
Officers.
This memorial is dedicated to preserving the memory
of every Police Officer and Firefighter that has given their life in the line
of duty, protecting the citizens of Fort Worth.
The
current inductees are:
Fort Worth Police Officers:
