Honoring Fallen COVID-19 Heroes

We honor those on the front lines of this pandemic for their heroic sacrifices. Since the start of the pandemic, we have lost over 80 law enforcement officers around the country from contracting the virus in the line of duty. They left their families to protect ours. May they rest in peace. https://www.facebook.com/palmbeachcountysheriff/videos/333490744470374/
