Dennis Fredrick Darragh

Dennis proudly served as a police officer before being injured in the line of duty, dedicated his career to protecting and serving his community with honor, courage, and compassion. After injury from the force, her carried with him the same values of integrity and service, continuing to guide, encourage, and support those around him.

Though his years in uniform were filled with bravery and sacrifice, Dennis' greatest pride was his family. He was a loving husband to his wife, Tammy, with whom he shared 33 years of marriage, building a life filled with love, laughter, and unshakable partnership. He was a proud father to 6 kids, instilling in them the lessons of hard work, kindness, and resilience. As "Papa", he found his greatest joy in his grandchildren, whose lives he filled with stories, wisdom, and unconditional love.
