“This community will never forget (the fallen’s) service and their sacrifice for this community and for the state of Tennessee,” said Harris. “Thank you all that wear a uniform, no matter what your function is, because without you, our society would (be chaos). Thank you for your service we cherish the memories of those who have given their all in the line of duty protecting our community. We will never forget.”
