HERO'S NEVER DIE; THEY JUST TAKE ON A NEW ASSIGNMENT!
MATTHEW 5:9
"Blessed are the peacemakers; for they shall be called the children of God"
Constabel Darius Quimby, you shall never be forgotten. I have worn a Memory bracelet for "Isaac Smith" EOW 05/17/1792. For some time he was listed as the first Officer killed in the line of duty. I have ordered a new one with your name. I feel comfort knowing that you are with God and watching the rest of us here on earth.
God Bless!

After some research and contacting the ODMP, I learned that you were the first known law enforcement officer killed in the line of duty. God rest your soul, you died a hero and will always be one. It is an honor to "meet you" here on this, your memorial page. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. You will never be forgotten!
