Today, on Peace Officers Memorial Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their communities.

We remember the fallen heroes who stood between good and evil, who ran toward danger when others ran away, and who paid the highest price so others could live in safety.

To the families, friends, and colleagues of our fallen brothers and sisters: your loss is felt deeply by every peace officer across this nation. You are never alone in your grief. We stand with you today and every day.

May we never forget their courage, their dedication, and the legacy they leave behind. Their names are etched in our hearts and on memorials across the country.

We honor them.

We remember them.

We continue their mission.

🚨 Dispatcher Appreciation Week 🚨

April 12-18 2026

To the true backbone of every emergency response: our 911 Dispatchers and Public Safety Telecommunicators.

You’re the first voice in the darkness. The calm in the chaos. The one who turns panic into action, coordinates the response, and stays steady when everyone else is racing toward danger. While officers are out on the street, you’re managing the radio, the calls, the lives on the line - often without ever being seen or heard from by the public.

You work the nights, the holidays, the worst days imaginable, and you do it with skill, professionalism, and heart. You don’t just answer phones, you save lives every single shift.

From the entire Bellingham Police Association, thank you. We see you. We appreciate you. We couldn’t do this job without you. You are the unsung heroes who make public safety possible
