Whitefish Bay Says 'Thank You' To Their Police Officers

With this week being Police Week, a number of Whitefish Bay's community members have offered their heartfelt thanks to the men in blue this week.

As part of Police Week, law enforcement honors those who were disabled or died in the line of duty. More than 19,000 names of fallen law enforcement officers are etched into the walls of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial — and more are added every year.

Members of the Whitefish Bay Police Department put their lives on the line every day. We put out a call on Facebook to offer the opportunity for the community to show their support for the men in blue.

Here's what you had to say:

• Kat Murray Well Officer Moraz and Lieutenant Stafanski (SPELLING??) I've had positive experiences under the situations.
• Kat Murray And unfortunately I don't know his name but I had an officer come and help me rescue a squirrel once. I caught the squirrel but it escaped behind a wood pile and I was afraid to grab it. He stopped by a few days later to make sure that the squirrel was OK but unfortunately it had to be put down because a vet couldn't get there in time. It was a squirrel in distressed labor.
• Kat Murray and Sargent Formella when a friend had a dog that "allegedly" bit another person - but she was reasonable with the situation at hand.
• John Stuhlmacher Ralph Ziets and Mike Kowalski are the best
• Lora Brewster Love our SRO David H! He really cares about the community! Thank you to all of our Officers!
