If you have seen any members of the NCSO recently you will notice them displaying the Mourning Band on our badges.

The Mourning Band is traditionally worn upon a line of duty death within the agency or as a sign of respect when attending an officers funeral.

We are wearing the Mourning Band as a show of respect and love to the many officers and first responders who have succumbed to the COVID-19 virus across our country.

I hope you will also take a moment during your day and think about all those that have been touched by this horrible illness.

As always God Bless, and now more than ever, be safe.

Sheriff Elmer Tanner
