Our Fallen Heroes

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:13

A Hero’s Welcome by Robert Longley

Time to come home dear brother; Your tour of duty is through; You’ve given more than anyone; Could be expected to do; Just a few steps further; The smoke will start to clear; Others here will guide you; You have no need to fear; You have not failed your brothers; You clearly gave it all; And through your selfless actions; Others will hear the call; So take your place of honor now; Among those who have gone before; And KNOW that you will be remembered; Both now and forevermore.

The Arizona Fallen Hero Memorial Riders honor every Arizona first responder and service member who gave their lives in the line of duty. Their bravery, dedication, and sacrifice reflect the highest ideals of service and commitment to others. These heroes laid down their lives to protect our communities and defend our freedoms. We carry their memory with profound respect and lasting gratitude, and we remain steadfast in our promise to never forget the price they paid in service to us all.

MAY THEY NEVER BE FORGOTTEN
