Legacy Lives On
May 1 marked the fifth anniversary of the fatal shooting of Maplewood Police Sgt. Joe Bergeron, who had served the city for
20 years. The City of Maplewood and Maplewood Police Department held a ceremony to retire his badge, number 357, at the
police memorial created outside City Hall after his death. Mayor Nora Slawik reads the proclamation as Police Chief Paul
Schnell holds it. Mayor Slawik presents the proclamation to Gail Bergeron along with the #357 badge. Two #457 badges
were presented to Bergeron's daughters, as well. The service included Ramsey County Police Chaplain Bob Leo and the
Minnesota Police Pipe Band. (05/06/2015 Linda Baumeister photos/Review)
