💔 Three Names. One City. Endless Courage.
In this powerful episode, Rico and BriAnn pay tribute to three Cleveland Police Officers whose lives and legacies continue to echo through the heart of the city.
We remember:
👮♂️ Officer Jamieson Ritter — End of Watch: July 4, 2024
A young Army National Guard veteran whose calm courage and quiet leadership left an unforgettable mark.
👮♂️ Officer Shane Henry Bartek — End of Watch: December 31, 2021
A light to everyone around him — joyful, selfless, and driven by faith in the good within others.
👮♂️ Officer David J. Fahey Jr. — End of Watch: January 24, 2017
A steady, humble protector whose final moments remind us of the unseen heroism lived out every day.
Together, their stories form a portrait of service, sacrifice, and love that defines what it means to protect and serve. 💙
