Dear Family, Friends & Department,
From my Family to yours, we extend our heartfelt condolences
in the loss of Deputy Sheriff Joe Dunn , who served his fellow
man, family, community & country with Great Distinction & Honor ... The Purple Heart Candles in our Family's 911 memorial will burn this day for him ...
Joe died on my son's 30th birthday ... no wonder my spirit was so heavy, not able to celebrate the life of my son's birth... another Mother was weeping over her son's death ... a wife & family have lost a piece of their hearts ...
May this Cherokee Mother & Grandmother bless you with my
words in times of quiet ...
"Be still & know that I am God ... comfort awaits you in my arms ..."
God Speed Joe !!!
Gone from our arms ... Forever in our hearts !!!

Standing at attention in their class “A“uniforms, badges gleaming and shoes like glass, are your brothers and sisters of Law Enforcement. All of whom have previously paid the ultimate price.
Today, like many others, they welcome you to this wonderful place.
As you march down the Avenue of the Fallen, all eyes focus on you as if to say “it’s OK, you’re with your eternal partners.”
A salute is followed and a tear can be seen on so many faces.
Welcome, you served well.
Now come join us in the ranks, another is coming home.
