The Upper Burrell Township Police Department is saddened to hear of the passing of Lisa Ingle, a founder of Alle-Kiski Back the Blue. Lisa was instrumental in providing so much support to local law enforcement and the families of police officers. Lisa dedicated 9 years of her life to the AKVBTB mission, serving as secretary since its inception. I have had the opportunity to meet Lisa on several occasions throughout the years, and she was a true HERO. She will be deeply missed by our community. We offer our deepest condolences to Lisa’s family and her AKVBTB family.

Farewell Lisa… your work will not be forgotten.
