This Memorial Day weekend, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. It is a time to reflect on the courage and selflessness of those who gave their lives for the freedoms we enjoy every day.

We are grateful for the heroes who served and for the families who carry their legacy forward. We remember them today and always.

Wishing everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day.

This past Monday, we had a packed house as we gathered at the Matthews Police Department for a special meeting focused on celebration and fellowship.

👏🏼We recognized Animal Control Officer Heather Kirkman as Officer of the Quarter. Officer Kirkman was celebrated not only for her hard work and dedication to animal and public safety, but also for her willingness to step in wherever needed across the department. She is known for always being the first to volunteer to help, and her commitment to both the Matthews Police Department family and the Matthews community does not go unnoticed.

🎉We also proudly celebrated the induction of several new Rotary members. Chief Avens was inducted as a full member of the Rotary Club of Matthews, while Lt. Gillespie, Lt. McWhirter, and Sgt. Warren were inducted as associate members.

🙌🏼Thank you to the Matthews Police Department for hosting us and for the continued service and leadership you provide to our community each and every day.

It was a meaningful afternoon of service and a reminder that small acts of kindness can make a tremendous impact.
