When a Line-of Duty death occurs
When an agency experiences the death of an officer,
especially in the line-of-duty,
time is of the essence. Having
a professional funeral coordinator as a member of your agency’s planning
team can provide the expertise and experience to
ensure the planning process progresses
with minimal difficulty. John is available 24/7 via telephone to any
agency in need of advice or assistance.
John may also be available to
come to your agency and join the planning team, depending on time and
distance considerations. The sooner he is
notified and requested, the more likely that he can respond. Agencies
should call John immediately and ascertain his
availability to respond to your city and work with your agency’s
funeral management team.
Because John is a private contractor, there will be costs
for travel, lodging, subsistence and management fees associated with any
response to assist an agency with a line-of-duty death.
If budgetary constraints are an issue, John will
cooperate with any agency and will not
arbitrarily decline to respond because of financial issues.
He occasionally gets corporate sponsorships to
defray some expenses involved in assisting an agency with a funeral.
Agencies should always call and determine what options are available.
For funeral assistance, call John’s cell phone at
(805) 630-0323. If no answer, leave a
message and call his residence (805) 522-4861.
