In Memoriam
Bolivar Patrolman Hugh Everette Eubanks
END OF WATCH: March 17, 1975

Annually, on May 15th, law enforcement officers honor those fallen in the line of duty. On March 17, 1975, tragedy struck in our hometown when Bolivar Patrolman Hugh Everette Eubanks, age 53, was shot and killed after responding to a domestic disturbance. After making contact with two males at the residence, Patrolman Eubanks was told that there was not a problem and that no one at the residence had called police. As Patrolman Eubanks was marking himself back into service with the dispatch officer, one of the men shot him in the chest. He succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead on arrival at the Bolivar Community Hospital.

Patrolman Eubanks was a retired Army officer, serving over 20 years in the military(1941-1962), and had worked at Kilgore prior to joining the Bolivar Police Department in 1971. He had served the citizens of Bolivar for the 4 years prior to his death. Patrolman Eubanks left behind a wife, four children, four sisters, his mother, and one grandson.

Today, we will honor the memory and legacy of Patrolman Eubanks at the Peace Officers Memorial Ceremony in Jackson, Tennessee. We ask that you join us in remembering and honoring the fallen, and we pray that you will keep us and all first responders in your thoughts and prayers as we strive each day to keep our community safe.
