On this rainy Monday, we pause to recognize those who ultimate price in the pursuit and preservation of our liberty.

Memorial Day is for the ones who never made it home to feel the warm embrace of their loved ones.

Whether they took their last breath during wartime or in service to this great nation in a time of peace, their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Indeed, there is no “happy” Memorial Day. We ask you reflect upon today on all those who gave up their tomorrow for your today.

There will be two small ceremonies commemorating the day. The first will be the placement of a wreath at 9 a.m. at our beautiful new Veterans Landing across from the Lansdowne Theater.

Then at 9:30 a.m. two more wreaths will be placed at the two monuments honoring those Lansdowne residents who gave their lives in World War I and World War II at Penn Wood High School.

Both ceremonies are hosted by the amazing patriots at Lansdowne American Legion Post 65. They will be held rain or shine.

Freedom isn’t free. We honor the fallen not just today, but every day.

It’s a bit out of the ordinary for us to make a post like this, but we couldn’t let the day pass without recognizing Travers Food Market on their four decades serving our community.

They’ve been tremendous partners and friends to us here. From hosting Coffee with a Cop to catering retirement and holiday lunches Dave, Donna, their girls and crew have always been there for our staff.

They nourish our stomachs and our souls, providing a friendly face on days when we need it most.

Here’s to many more years for this Lansdowne landmark!

Congrats on 40 years!

Another Arts on the Avenue Festival in the books! It’s always great to showcase our little town on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.

Lots of talented artists, tasty treats and good times.

Officer Tobelmann was out and about making sure folks were safe and the water ice was secure!

Thanks to all who made this day possible!

A fitting tribute for our boy! He’s missed every day and we’re better people for having him.

Thanks, Boss, from all of us!

This post is long overdue.

At our last Council meeting, we honored and remembered our K9 Officer Bogi. Since joining the Lansdowne Police Department in 2019, Bogi was more than a K9 officer — he was a beloved part of our police family and our community.

Bogi’s “Mom and Dad,” Sgt. Miller and his wife, were there along with the entire police department, making the evening especially meaningful and emotional. I had the honor of presenting them with a proclamation memorializing Bogi’s service, along with a portrait in his memory.

Bogi was deeply loved, and he will be missed terribly. ❤️🐾

More than 24,000 names are etched on the wall of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, DC.

This week we recognize those brave men and women as we add 111 more names to this memorial.

They were fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives. They made the ultimate sacrifice, not performing a job, but answering a call to service.

This week is National Police Week. You’ll notice the black mourning bands we wear across our badges to commemorate it.

Take time to acknowledge not only the sacrifice these fallen heroes made, but also the ones made by those who patrol our streets day in and day out.

Honor. Respect. Remember.

It’s with your care and support that we’re able to do what we do every day!

Happy Mother’s Day!
