A memorial service at the First Baptist Church of Atlanta honored the memory of David Rose, a Marine and police officer.
He was killed in the line of duty in a shooting near the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Aug. 8.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp and the CDC director were among those who attended the service, which celebrated Rose’s life of service and sacrifice.
“David was a man whose life was defined by service: to his country, to his community and to those he loved,” said Gregory Padrick, Interim DeKalb County Police Chief.
The service included a flyover, a 21-gun salute and the playing of Taps, honoring Rose’s dedication and bravery.
