Yesterday afternoon, members of local law enforcement, elected officials, tribal leaders, and Mendocino County residents gathered to honor those who have lost their lives protecting the citizens of Mendocino County.
The dedication ceremony centered around the installation of a granite memorial for Fallen Peace Officers. Bouquets of yellow roses were laid, bagpipes were played, and respect was paid to those lawmen who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Speakers included Sheriff Matt Kendall and former sheriffs Tom Allman and Jim Tuso.
Here are some of our favorite photos from the ceremony:
End of watch, God bless those who gave all they had to give.
