LUFKIN, Texas — The Lufkin Police Department is asking East Texans to show their support by wearing blue on Monday, Aug. 21, in honor of Officer Holley.
Officer Holley died last Friday resulting from a medical emergency while on duty.
Flags will also be displayed at half-staff across the community in his remembrance.
"(Officer Holley) passed away in the performance of his duties. The noble duty of protecting our children each and every day, standing between them and the evil in this world. And, he did it with a smile," said the Hudson Volunteer Fire Department.
