The Police Benevolent Foundation to hold fundraiser for fallen Faulkner County Sheriff's Deputy Hans Fifer at two area Wal-Mart stores
Apr 12, 2013
The Police Benevolent Foundation (PBF) and the Arkansas Police Benevolent Association (ARPBA) would like to express its deepest sympathy and compassion to the family, friends and fellow law enforcement officers of Faulkner County Sheriff’s Deputy Hans Fifer who suffered a fatal heart attack after completing a SWAT training activity on Monday, April 8, 2013. Deputy Fifer was a great law enforcement officer and will be missed by all that knew him.
Deputy Fifer paid the ultimate sacrifice, and it is with a heavy heart that the PBF asks for the help of the local community to aid in their efforts to provide much needed support for this deputy’s beneficiaries in their time of need.
Members from the North Central Chapter of the Arkansas PBA will be hosting a fundraiser at two area Wal-Mart stores.
