💔 In Loving Memory of David Christopher Maland 💔

It is with heavy hearts that we share the tragic loss of David Christopher “Chris” Maland, a devoted U.S. Border Patrol Agent, who was taken from us far too soon. On January 20, Chris made the ultimate sacrifice, losing his life in the line of duty during a traffic stop near the Vermont-Canadian border.

Chris was a man of extraordinary courage, honor, and dedication. He served our nation with pride, always putting service above self, and touched countless lives with his unwavering commitment to protecting others.

Now, as his family and loved ones navigate this unimaginable loss, we have the opportunity to come together in support. A GoFundMe has been created to help the Maland family during this difficult time.

If you can, please consider donating or sharing this post. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference and shows the Maland family they are not alone.
