Crowder College hosts remembrance service for fallen officers

NEOSHO, Mo. — Honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Dozens gathered at Crowder College for the 'Service of Remembrance' in honor of fallen officers. Speakers ranged from State Senator Jill Carter to the Neosho police chief and Newton County sheriff. This is just one of many, many similar events that are part of National Police Week. 'It's very important that we remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice to the citizens of our community, to the citizens of our country. Law enforcement officers go out every day – putting their lives on the line for our citizens. And it's important that we honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice,' said Newton Co. Sheriff Matt Stewart. Sheriff Matt Stewart added that it's also important to recognize the challenges every officer faces every day on the job. 'So you know, law enforcement officers, in my opinion, are the best in the world. They go out every day, not knowing what is going to bring them and what may end at the end of their shift,' said Stewart. Police officers and deputies took part in the event, along with others involved in keeping the peace and those who are simply there to show their support. 'It's important for the fallen officers' families and then their relatives to see the support that their loved ones had. Like I said, it's also equally as important for the officers who are alive and doing the job to see the backing they still have,' said NPD Chief Jason Baird. The service recognized officers who have lost their lives in southwest Missouri, as well as those in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
