Hello everyone,

Sorry I haven't posted I have been busy working all summer to save up as I turn 16 at the end of this month and have a car to pay for.

That means I will be out finding officers to thank on my own!!!

But I wanted to post how proud I am of my dad. He never stops helping people and learning.

He now works part time with the Jefferson County Medical Examiner on top of Med Flight and Creek Fire.

I realize more and more everyday how much I am like him. All we want to do is help people and serve our communities.

Liam had an amazing day. Catching up with officers from our adventures in the past and meeting new friends.

Special thanks to Mineral Point PD for allowing Liam to ride with them in procession.

Many people took pictures with Liam but I failed to get any. If you have any please share!

Today we remember the 308 Wisconsin Law Enforcement Officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

To the family of these fallen officers our thoughts and prayers are with you. Not only today, but every day.

Today Liam's goal is to reach every officer in uniform at the Fallen Officer Memorial. To give them a coin in hopes that it may protect just one officer from making the ultimate sacrifice.

In 6 years Liam has handed out nearly 4000 coins in 9 states. More so he has touched the lives of even more by showing his love and support of law enforcement officers.

Along the way Liam and I have had the distinct pleasure of forming relationships with several loved ones of fallen officers. These relationships are very near and dear to our hearts.

To every law enforcement officer, thank you. To the family of all the law enforcement officers thank you for being strong when your loved one is out protecting all of us.

Liam and I have discussing what to post in light if recent incidents. Our hearts are broken with the death of another Wisconsin law enforcement officer along with the senseless murder of a Chicago police officer who was on her way home from work.

Both of these women gave the ultimate sacrifice doing a job both truly loved.

Our thoughts are prayers are with their families, their departments, and with all of law enforcement during these trying times.
