be a reminder of the debt citizens owe public safety workers. “Nothing we do can ever repay their commitment, a commitment

that goes beyond Indiana’s officers to their loved ones, who also share their sacrifice,” said O’Bannon. “While we can’t undo what has already been done, we can help the survivors and citizens remember their sacrifice.” Last year, nine Indiana law en-

forcement officers and firefighters died protecting those they vowed to serve. The governor also declared June 9 as Public Safety Day last year. Ten other states made the declaration this year. O’Bannon said he hopes that law enforcement offic-

ers and firefighters coming to the 2001 event will join the citizens of Indiana in visiting the distinct and unique memorial. “I think it’s a great tribute,” Capt. James Toler, who has been an Indianapolis policeman for 37 years. “I also think it’s well over due.

Sometimes we take public safety casually and don’t really give a thought about the sacrifices police officers, firefighters and their fami-

lies make.”
