pam Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I wondered if you knew him knowing he was from Unified. I'm terribly sorry for the loss of your friend. I seriously teared up reading the article about him earlier yesterday. mirkwood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiritDragon Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 This is just wrong. I don't think the rational human mind can understand why someone would do this to another. It all seems so pointless. I'm sorry for your loss and for the community and especially family. Thank-you for what you do to keep the streets safe. We realize all too well that it could have just as easily been any other officer, could have been you. I'm glad we still have you around. mirkwood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeccaKirstyn Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 This was shared by a friend today on Facebook. I don't know if it is viewable, but if not it is a collage of photos of Officer Doug Barney. So sorry for your loss. https://www.facebook.com/NicoleVowellNewsReporter/photos/a.726239214055544.1073741828.726172047395594/1156059044406890/?type=3&theater mirkwood and Backroads 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted January 20, 2016 Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Another sad part to this story is the fact that he had volunteered to work OT that Sunday to help pay for his cancer treatment bills. He was a survivor of bladder cancer. mirkwood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirkwood Posted January 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 U.S. Honor Flag to arrive in Utah for Officer Douglas Barney FuneralWho: Unified Police Department and Office of the SheriffWhat: Receiving of the U.S. Honor Flag for Officer Doug Barney’s FuneralWhere: Utah State Capitol/Fallen Officer Memorial to Larkin Mortuary/260 E. S. TempleWhen: Wednesday, January 20, 2016 at approximately 2000 hours (8:00 pm)The Office of the Sheriff is honored to be receiving this tribute for our beloved fallen officer, Doug Barney.“Shortly after the September 11. 2011 attacks, a flag was gifted to Chris Heisler by the Texas House of Representatives. A hand written note thanked Chris for his efforts; signed, the Texas House of Representatives. Like many Americans, Heisler felt compelled to take action during a horrific time for the United States, and with this flag in tow, he set out for Ground Zero. Along the way, Heisler helped to organize one of the longest police motorcades in the history of the United States, bound for Ground Zero, to our nation’s Heroes. Since 2001, the United States Honor Flag has paid tribute to those who have lost their lives in the line of duty protecting our lives, our homes and our country, and also those who currently serve our communities and our nation.” http://www.ushonorflag.org/index.htmlPlease join us in receiving the U.S. Honor Flag as it enters the State of Utah and is escorted to the Utah State Capitol where it will be received by Sheriff James Winder and his Administration in honor of our fallen comrade.Members from police agencies across the state will escort the flag from the Utah State line, to the Utah State Capitol Fallen Officer Memorial where we will pay tribute to Officer Barney and all those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice before him. From there, Sheriff Winder will personally deliver the flag to Larkin Mortuary where it will stay with Officer Barney throughout his services.We anticipate the motorcade arriving at the State Capitol at approximately 2000 hours (8 pm); we will post location updates via the @UPD_Media Twitter page. classylady 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
