A long-awaited vision to honor the Texas Panhandle’s fallen first responders will become a reality on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, as the Texas Panhandle First Responders Memorial is officially dedicated during a special ceremony beginning at 4 p.m.
As one of the generous people who made the Memorial possible, we want to invite you to join us for this milestone occasion. If you aren’t able to make it in person, you can watch the dedication broadcast live on KAMR Local 4, KAMR Plus, and MyHighPlains.com.
The dedication ceremony will feature a combined Honor Guard comprised of first responders from agencies across the region, coming together in a powerful display of unity, respect, and remembrance. The ceremony will also include a bagpiper performing “Taps” and “Amazing Grace,” a 21-gun salute, and the traditional firefighter’s Last Alarm, known as the 5-5-5.
One of the most meaningful moments will be the ceremonial calling of the names of all 110 fallen heroes, ensuring that each individual is recognized, honored, and remembered.
Thank you again for helping make this Memorial possible. We hope you’ll be able to join us or watch live at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, October 28.
