The Bartow Police Department was honored to take part in the 38th Annual Polk County Peace Officers Memorial Service. This morning, we joined our partner agencies in honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and the families who carry that loss every day.

We stood together in solemn gratitude, recommitting ourselves to the mission and the memory of those who laid down their lives.

Heroes live as long as they are remembered — and we will always remember.
