In 2021, the names of 394 officers killed in the line of duty were added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, DC. These 394 officers included 295 (182 fatalities are COVID-19-related) officers who were killed during 2020, plus 99 officers who died in previous years but whose stories of sacrifice had been lost to history until now.

MOODY – Expenses for the Doris Stanley Memorial Library (otherwise known as the Moody Public Library) not to exceed $2,000 was approved at a brief meeting of the Moody City Council on Monday, April 26.
The request was made by library director Patsy Spradley, who said that the program will be done online for the summer due to the COVID-19 situation as opposed to doing them live in previous programs. Four videos will be produced for children to watch as part of the program.
“We have a good time,” she said. “And I know that it’s a lot more fun to be able to go and watch our live shows, but this will suffice this year.”
