Police agencies from Western New York and Southern Ontario will honor the memories of the police officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.
The 14th annual Niagara County Police Appreciation Day Interfaith Memorial Service will be held at 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 12 at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 400 Ridge St. in Lewiston.
This year’s guest speaker will be Michael J. Violante, Niagara County district attorney. Host pastor will be Rev. Susan C. Keppy, a chaplain with the Lewiston Police Department. A reception will be held in the church hall immediately following the service.
This service is held the night prior to the 23rd annual candlelight vigil in Washington, DC. The Niagara County service will feature the reading of the Roll of Honor, a roster of the officers killed in the line of duty over the years. Area musicians and a rifle salute will pay homage to the police officers who put themselves in harms way to protect the safety of all.
