Intergraph Donates $15K to Huntsville Police Foundation
Monument to honor local officers who have given their lives
to protect the community
HUNTSVILLE,
AL, Feb 7, 2008 - Intergraph President and CEO R. Halsey Wise presented a
$15,000 donation to the Huntsville Police Citizens Foundation today that
will be used to fund the Fallen Officers’ Memorial in honor of local
officers who have given their lives in the service to the Huntsville
community.
Nine Huntsville police officers have died in the line of duty since 1883
and two officers, Daniel Golden and Eric Freeman, have given their lives
since 2005. The Fallen Officers’ Memorial will be constructed in front of
the city’s Department of Public Safety complex. The memorial, which is being
managed by the Huntsville Police Memorial Committee, will consist of a
statue and benches surrounded by engraved light bollards, placards and brick
pavers. Individual donors have the opportunity to personalize the light
bollards, placards and pavers.
"As a company with deep roots and a rich history in Huntsville,
Intergraph is the first local business to contribute at such a significant
level to the memorial to honor our fallen comrades,” said Huntsville Police
Citizens Foundation Chairman Mike Fees. “We are thankful for this generous
donation to help make the memorial a reality."
"Each and every day, the men and women of the Huntsville Police
Department put their lives on the line to ensure that our community remains
a safe and peaceful place to live and work,” Wise said. “Intergraph is
grateful to these individuals for their role in protecting and serving
Huntsville and to the officers who paid the ultimate price. We are honored
to be a part of this community and to contribute toward preserving the
memory of these heroes through the Fallen Officers’ Memorial."
"We hope that other businesses in the area join Intergraph by allocating
funds in support of the Fallen Officers’ Memorial,” said Mayor Loretta
Spencer. “Knowing the respect of the Huntsville business community, I am
confident that Intergraph will soon be joined by other contributors to
support this worthy cause and addition to Huntsville."
Public Safety Director Rex Reynolds said, "On behalf of the men and women
of the Huntsville Police Department, we are proud of our long term
partnership with Intergraph, and very thankful for their contribution to
this worthy endeavor. Today's donation will go a long way in helping us
reach our goal of raising $500,000."
