Officer Hostetter you are not forgotten....God Bless you and thank you for your service. It has been 100 years since you passed and we still remember your service to your city and to all law enforcement officers.

On the 100th anniversary of Patrolman Hostetter's death, we honored his service in our patrol briefing by reading his entry from ODMP. Each day, we honor one fallen officer on the anniversary of their death so as to keep them in our thoughts, and also to remind us of the dangers inherent in our job. Patrolman Hostetter is not forgotten.
