Issue #396

From Dubois County

Good afternoon, Reader,

Dispatch called out Jeremy Lee's call sign as his escort paused under the Garrison Flag in Jasper this morning. Silence followed until a second call broke it. Again, no answer.

It was a solemn moment as he was released from duty, dispatch signaling 10-42 end of watch, before the procession continued to Fairview Cemetery.

Deputy Lee served 31 years with the Jasper Police Department and, for the past three years, served as a deputy sheriff with the Dubois County Sheriff’s Department, where he worked as a School Resource Officer for the Southeast Dubois County School Corporation.

From Dubois County with love.

Matthew and Amy Crane
