Officer Beesley served as an Arvada Police Officer for 19 years.

Officer Beesley, your watch is over, you can stand down.
Those you've left behind now have the watch. Rest in peace.
EOW. 21 JUNE 2021.

I would be remiss if I failed to mention the commitment of Randy Wittmer and Don Rohacek to insuring an honorable and respectful Service for Officer Beesley and for their involvement in the supportive activities that culminated with today's Service.
This Mission was very well supported by our members. By all accounts, Officer Beesley was an amazing LEO and a wonderful man. I know that the honor, respect and support that you displayed was very much appreciated by his family, friends and LEO brothers and sisters.
Thanks to all who participated.
