Community members gathered today for the annual Lunch for Law Enforcement, a meaningful event dedicated to honoring the lives and legacy of Jeremy “Jay” Carruth and David Ezernack, whose sacrifice will never be forgotten.

The event also recognized the contributions of Charles and Pat Carruth, who open their home each year in loving memory of their son, Jay. Organizers praised their kindness, strength, and continued commitment to honoring his legacy, calling it a gesture that means more than words can express.

The gathering provided an opportunity for community members to reflect on the dedication and service of law enforcement officers who protect and serve each day, and to show appreciation for the men and women of local police departments.
