๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ“ž National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week ๐Ÿ“ž๐Ÿ’™

To the dispatchers of the Dexter Police Department โ€” thank you for being the calm, steady voice when people are scared, hurting, or unsure of what to do next. You listen, you reassure, and you take control in moments when every second matters.

Behind the scenes, you juggle countless calls, support responders, and carry the weight of situations most never see โ€” all while showing compassion and professionalism every shift. Your work is critical, and your dedication does not go unnoticed.

We are incredibly grateful for everything you do, not just this week, but every day.

The Dexter Police Department is deeply saddened by the loss of Stoddard County Deputy Tony Cooper. Tony was a great officer and an even better friend to so many. He cared deeply about his job, his community, and the people around him, and that showed every day. His presence will truly be missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing and working with him.

Please keep Tonyโ€™s family, friends, and the Stoddard County Sheriffโ€™s Office in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

Rest easy, Tony. You wonโ€™t be forgotten. ๐Ÿ’™
