The dome of the Missouri State Capitol and the Missouri Law Enforcement Memorial will be lit blue over the weekend to honor fallen law enforcement officers. Governor Mike Kehoe ordered the lighting from sunset on Friday, May 1st, until sunrise on Sunday, May 3rd, to pay tribute to Missouri’s fallen law enforcement heroes. The annual Missouri Law Enforcement Candlelight Vigil and Memorial Service will be held on May 1 and 2 to honor the officers who made the ultimate sacrifice. The names of two officers who died in the line of duty in 2025, Eddie A. Mays and Henry Franklin, have been added to the memorial’s Wall of Honor, bringing the total to 754 fallen Missouri law enforcement officers.
