CANTON, Mo. â A Culver Stockton criminal justice professorâs successful program honoring law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line of duty will soon give students the chance to pay tribute to firefighters as well.
Hannibal native and Lewis County Sheriffâs Deputy Seth McBride served with the Hannibal Police Department from 2003 to 2012, and he wanted to honor law enforcement officers who gave the ultimate sacrifice through the volunteer-driven Fallen Officer Project Campaign he created in 2018. Last year, the campaign raised funds for WHOH Detroit and Supporting Heroes. McBride and his wife, Kayla, were invited to attend the Heroes Tribute Gala in Owensboro, Ky., which inspired a way to pay tribute to firefighters as well.
