Cd'A Police Department thanks community

The Coeur d'Alene Police Department appreciates all the thoughtful donations and cards of sympathy for Sgt. Greg Moore's children, Sgt. Christie Wood wrote in a statement Wednesday.

The men and women who work here, and their families, are doing their best to provide comfort to each other and persevere.

On Wednesday, Sgt. Moore's body was transported to Spokane for an autopsy relevant to the criminal case. Police officers from several agencies, as well as employees of Kootenai Health, lined the long hallway as English Funeral Home employees carried him to the transport vehicle.

Coeur d'Alene Police officers escorted Sgt. Moore to the Spokane Coroner's Office and multiple police and fire jurisdictions joined in solidarity along the way.

"We are humbled and overwhelmed by the kind response we have received from this community and around the entire nation," Chief Lee White said. "I wish to thank our surrounding law enforcement agencies for their continued support of our personnel. We especially want to thank the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office for answering many calls for service in the city and giving our officers time to grieve."

"I am extremely proud of our officers while they continue to carry out their oath to protect and serve this community," he added.

Sgt. Moore's funeral is scheduled to take place Saturday at 10 a.m. at Lake City High School, 6101 N. Ramsey Road, Coeur d'Alene. Additional details on the service will be released as soon as arrangements have been finalized.
