About Officer Daniel Talbot

Dear Friend,

The Officer Daniel Talbot Memorial Foundation is seeking participants, donations, and/or volunteers for its 1st Annual Heels and Wheels event to be held Sunday, June 1st, 2008, at Revere Beach, Revere, MA. The event will include a motorcycle run, 5K road race, and a classic car show.


2007 was a deadly year for law enforcement in the United States, with 186 officers killed nationwide, the percentage of fatalities rose more than 28% from the previous year. 69 officers were victims of gun violence, up 33% from 2006. Daniel Talbot was among these victims.


As a 5 year veteran on the Revere Police Department, Daniel Talbot served as a patrol officer and a member of the Gang Unit. He stood up for people who were wronged; he was tough when necessary and compassionate when the moment demanded it. He was a proud man, a practical joker, self disciplined, proper, respectful, and loyal, with high moral character and values. His death is a devastating loss to the city of Revere and the Police community.


Daniel Talbot's death will not be in vain; his story will push on. Through the Daniel Talbot Memorial Foundation every effort will be made to promote a positive image of the life and memory of Daniel Talbot while promoting awareness of the sacrifice of all law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.


The 1st Annual Heels and Wheels is our opportunity to have some fun and raise some money to show our love and support for the community and fiancé of fallen Officer Daniel Talbot, "163".


We hope you can join us or contribute in any way possible whether through participating, volunteering your time, or a donation.
