RCMP unveil Cenotaph, Wall of Honour on anniversary of Const. Rick O’Brien’s death
MAPLE RIDGE – The Ridge Meadows’ RCMP detachment is now home to a pair of memorials paying tribute to one of their officers killed in the line of duty last year.
In a private ceremony late last week, the anniversary of Constable Frederick “Rick” O’Brien’s death was commemorated with the unveiling of a Cenotaph and Wall of Honour at the RCMP’s outlet at Haney Place.
The accolades follow a similar tribute in Regina earlier this month when O’Brien was added to a memorial wall during a national service at the RCMP Academy.
