Memorial for Fallen Sheriff's Deputy Rebuilt and Rededicated #LASD

Deputy Dave March was killed in the line of duty after stopping a vehicle in Irwindale, California on April 29, 2002.

A memorial was built shortly after his death by the Irwindale Peace Officers' Association (IPOA) as a tribute to Deputy March.

The memorial was destroyed on November 28, 2013 in an early morning traffic collision.

When the memorial was destroyed, IPOA, without hesitation, took it upon themselves to rebuild the memorial to continue Deputy March's memory. The entire memorial was rebuilt within one week due to IPOA's diligence and commitment.

Temple Sheriff's Station, as well at the entire Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is forever grateful for IPOA's initiative.

The Irwindale Police Officers' Association, in partnership with the Temple Sheriff's Station and the Irwindale Police Department held a brief re-dedication ceremony for the new memorial on Wednesday, December 11th at 10:00 am at the site of the memorial.
