Today on the 30th Anniversary of the flood, we remember the sacrifice of Trooper Purdy. The Bible says, greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. We are gratefull for all our troopers and officers who daily give of themselves to protect us.

I was travelling north on I-70 going to Wyoming with my family. I remember the rain and the news reports of the flooding in the Big Thompson. My thoughts and prayers go out to Trooper Purdy and his family. It is Officers like him that made me want to be a Police officer. God Bless
