Chaplain David Pagel of the Pleasant Prairie Police Department offered opening reflections that blended gratitude and spiritual encouragement, urging attendees to “count your blessings” and pray for those who serve. “Being the one to enforce consequences is a thankless job,” Pagel noted. “Our law enforcement officers need our support. They need our prayers, because we need them.”

Kenosha Police Chief Patrick Patton emphasized the humanity behind the badge. “Behind each one of these badges is a heart,” he said. “A heart dedicated to protecting and serving with unwavering commitment.” Patton reminded attendees that fallen officers leave behind more than a badge—they leave behind families, colleagues, and communities who must carry on their legacy.

District Attorney Xavier Solis, who could not attend due to an ongoing jury trial, expressed regret at missing the ceremony.

The memorial serves not only as a moment of reflection but as a rededication to service. In the words of Chief Patton, “Let us remember the fallen not only with somber reverence, but with a steadfast promise to carry their legacy in the work that we continue to do.”

  1. Thank you for attending Kevin, we all should take a moment and think about those that have fallen protecting us. Just not their life they gave up but the families that forever suffered from that loss. RIP

  2. Any idea on why Don Murphy is listed on the memorial. He was retired from KPD many years when he passed away. He was not killed in the line of duty.

    1. I agree. He watched his neighborhood for loud music and parking violations so he might as well have been on duty.

      But yes, he was retired and did not die in line of duty.
