Two years ago, we lost Officer Joshua Brandes.

Today, we pause to remember his service, his friendship, and the impact he left on those who knew and served alongside him.

Though two years have passed, Joshua is not forgotten. We continue to honor his memory and keep his family, friends, and fellow officers in our thoughts.

Yesterday, our officers joined members of the community in reading portions of the United States Constitution and recognizing the principles upon which our nation was founded.

We appreciate the John B. Denton Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution for continuing this annual tradition and for inviting our officers to take part.

Some of us remember exactly where we were on September 11, 2001. Others were too young to remember or had not yet been born. While we may not all share the same memories of that day, we share the responsibility of honoring the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the families forever changed.

In the months that followed, Americans stood together. We were not defined by our differences, but united by what we shared. We were reminded that community is more than simply living in the same place—it is caring for our neighbors, helping those in need, and standing together during difficult times.

Twenty-five years later, may we honor those we lost by continuing to be that kind of community—one that builds bridges, shows kindness, lifts others up, and looks out for one another.

Our differences do not define us. Our actions do.

We are neighbors. We are a community. We are Americans. We remember, and we will never forget.
