First to the scene, first in the building, first to take on evil, sacrificing his life in an effort to save and protect others he had never met.  Boulder Police Department Officer Eric Talley lost his life yesterday, performing his job, a job he volunteered to perform, a job that had already changed him as a human, a job that never guaranteed his safe return home.  Officer Talley paid the ultimate sacrifice in defense of the innocent, human decency, peace and our right to live a good life, leaving behind his family, including his 7 children.

As we have done in the past, NOCO Police And Fire Families is asking for donations in light of this tragedy.  ALL donations collected between today, 03/23/2021, and  Friday, 04/02/2021, will be donated directly to Officer Talley’s family, on behalf of our NOCO Police and Fire Families community.

Please visit www.nocopoliceandfirefamilies.com to donate.  We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and due to such all donations can be used as a tax deduction.  Officer Talley’s family cannot be taxed and will be given 100% of the funds..  Please consider giving what you can.

Rest In Peace Officer Talley, we have the watch from here.
