Today, our hearts are full seeing the incredible kindness and support being shown to the Heidelberg Police Department and the family of Chief Dennis Dixon.
We want to sincerely thank everyone who has stopped by with flowers, food, cards, and thoughtful gestures in honor of Chief Dixon. Your kindness has meant more than words can express during this difficult time. The outpouring of love from our community has been a beautiful reminder of the impact Chief Dixon had on so many lives.
We would also like to extend a heartfelt public thank you to the neighboring police departments, fire departments, EMS personnel, first responders, and public safety partners who have stepped up to support our officers, borough staff, and community over the past several days. Your presence, compassion, and willingness to stand beside Heidelberg during this time has not gone unnoticed, and we are deeply grateful.
Chief Dixon served this community with dedication, leadership, and heart for many years. He was respected not only as a police chief, but as a mentor, colleague, and friend to so many. His legacy and the lives he touched throughout this community will never be forgotten.
For anyone wishing to send cards to Chief Dixon’s family, they may be mailed or dropped off at the Heidelberg Borough Office, and we will ensure they are delivered to the family. 💙
