The Honor The Blue Line Memorial Hockey Event drew a large and passionate crowd at the Taylor Sportsplex, paying an emotional tribute to Deputy Eric Overall, Oakland County. The annual memorial hockey game was played between the Detroit Police Department and The Michigan Warriors. Chris Hervey, Chief of Programs Operations for the Michigan Warriors was present, representing the great work of the local organization.
The Michigan Warrior hockey organization is a non-profit hockey program for Disabled Veterans. The benefit skate honored Oakland County Sheriff’s Deputy Eric Overall, our local officer struck down in the line of duty just before Thanksgiving. I attended as a sponsor, representing Thin Blue Line USA and the incredible police supporters from across the state. We are passionate sponsors of law enforcement non-profits and make it our mission to support every family affected by the loss of a fallen officer. At our table we offered the hockey guests our American Flag bracelets, pins and stickers to directly benefit the Overall family. So many of the guests that stopped by our table were at the game to support the Overall family. A special tribute was made with hundreds of custom bracelets in Eric’s honor, and they were presented them to his wife, Sonja Overall, later that evening.
