Candlelight Vigil Honoring Officer Pete Zajac

Our community is invited to come together tonight at 7pm for a candlelight vigil to honor Officer Pete Zajac. We’ll gather at the Farmington Police Station to remember Pete, stand with his family, and support all who are grieving this profound loss.

If Pete ever touched your life, please join us to honor his memory.

We ask that you bring your own candle and park along Municipal Drive (outside the police station lot).

Let’s lift Pete’s memory in light, love, and gratitude for all he gave to Farmington.

Farmington community,

I’m writing to share some tragic and sad news. Late last night, Officer Pete Zajac took his life. Officer Zajac was a well-respected fifteen-year veteran of the Farmington Police Department, and is survived by his wife and three children. Officer Zajac spent the past two years serving as the School Resource Officer within the Farmington school district. Our entire police department family is in mourning and our hearts go out to his entire family. His presence within our department and our community as a whole will be missed. A sincere thank you to our law enforcement partners, and those in the community who have surrounded us in our time of need and those that will support us in the tough times ahead.
