The Johnson City Police Association wants to honor one of their own with a memorial.

On March 31, 2014 Johnson City Police Officer David Smith Jr was killed in the line of duty.

Memorial pins are being sold for $3.00 and the money will go to help fund a memorial and other programs in his name.  The pins can be purchased at the Johnson City Police Department between 6am and 6pm. The pins feature a police badge with black tape across it, along with David Smith’s name and the letters EOW which stand for ‘End of Watch’. Window stickers are also available for $1.00 each

I have a personal connection with Officer Smith; his father is my mother’s first cousin, so this is part of my family tree.

Officer David Smith gave his life to protect and serve our community and we all need to remember him and what he stood for.
