COMMUNITY: A heartfelt thank you

| July 13, 2025 1:00 AM

It has been a challenging week for our city and our community. As we mourn the tragic loss of Battalion Chief John Morrison and Battalion Chief Frank Harwood, and as we continue to pray for the recovery of Coeur d’Alene Engineer Dave Tysdal, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to our community and to all who came, selflessly, to stand beside us from so many other communities.

This horrific event has brought unimaginable sorrow, but it has also revealed the very best of who we are. The compassion, generosity, and unity shown by our residents, businesses, and visitors have been nothing short of extraordinary. From the lining of the streets during the funeral processions to the countless acts of kindness and support, your response has been deeply moving and profoundly appreciated.
