Concord, N.H. — Today, Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander (NH-02), along with U.S. Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and Maggie Hassan (D-NH), and Representative Chris Pappas (NH-01), joined members of the law enforcement community to honor fallen officers at the annual New Hampshire Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Association Ceremony. The memorial honors New Hampshire law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty. Today, there are 55 names on the monument representing 34 New Hampshire law enforcement agencies.
“We owe a debt of gratitude we can never fully repay to the fifty-five brave New Hampshire law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line of duty,” said Congresswoman Maggie Goodlander. “It was an honor to be with people from across our state to commemorate their service and the sacrifices of their families and loved ones. Today and every day, I am grateful to New Hampshire’s law enforcement officers who dedicate their lives to keeping us all safe.”
“I was honored to join the 33rd annual New Hampshire Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Association Ceremony this morning in Concord to pay tribute to those courageous officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice protecting our communities,” said Senator Shaheen. “As National Police Week comes to a close, the memorial is an important recognition of just how much our law enforcement officers do every day to provide safety and security for us all.”
“New Hampshire’s law enforcement officers put their lives on the line every day to protect their fellow Granite Staters and keep our communities safe,” Senator Hassan said. “The Law Enforcement Officers’ Memorial Ceremony is an important opportunity to come together to pay tribute to our fallen heroes and recommit ourselves to supporting their families, loved ones, and fellow officers.”
“It was an honor to join members of New Hampshire’s law enforcement community at the Law Enforcement Officers’ Memorial today,” said Congressman Pappas. “On this solemn occasion, we recognize the courage, commitment, and sacrifice of members of law enforcement and pay tribute to those tragically lost in the line of duty. I’m forever grateful for those who put on the uniform to protect our communities and for family members who serve and sacrifice alongside them.”
