Daytona Beach Police Department 129 Valor Boulevard Daytona Beach, FL
Unveiled to the public on January 12, 2022 the beautiful Daytona Beach police deparment “Fallen Heroes” memorial honors Daytona Beach police officers who have given their lives in the line of duty.
This monument is a replacement monument for an earlier version that was unfortunately destroyed in a lawn maintenance accident. The Lohman family were instrumental in helping source the new monument.
After the dedication ceremony, State Attorney RJ Larizza, said, “We should remember the folks that have died in the line of duty. Not just to honor them, which is important, but also to remind the community of the dangerous nature of law enforcement. They put on that uniform every day and it could be the last day that they put it on. I think that’s an important thing to remember today.”
The front of the memorial features the names of the fallen heroes. The reverse side features A Police Officer’s Prayer.
I will be creating individual posts for each of the officers listed on the memorial and linking them through the listing below. If you have information on these officers you would like to share, please reach out. I would be honored to include your information. Photos are especially appreciated and you will receive recognition for your contribution.
