Thank you to everyone who came out in support of the Langsdorf family and the future Heroes of our community through the Michael V. Langsdorf Scholarship fund. This community never ceases to amaze and inspire us. We are entirely grateful to our golfers, sponsors, volunteers and our host Tapawingo National Golf Club ⛳️

What a beautiful day to remember a wonderful officer, son, father and friend to many 💙💛

A career long brother in the International Association of Fire Fighters and a St. Louis Fire Department Captain, Jake Brockmeier followed in the footsteps of his father, grandfathers, and great-grandfather, who all served as firefighters. His great-grandfather lost his life in the line of duty, leaving behind a legacy of courage, sacrifice, and commitment to others.

Captain Brockmeier, while off duty, received a Life360 notification his daughter had been involved in a severe crash. He rushed to the scene. Upon arrival, Captain Brockmeier faced a scene that would shake any parent's core. Before emergency personnel could arrive, he began administering lifesaving care to his daughter, drawing on a lifetime of service and dedication to others.

Alyssa, the niece of SLMPD Sgt. Michael Simpson, has become a symbol of hope and resilience across both the law enforcement & fire service communities. While she survived the crash, her journey is far from over. She now faces a long path filled with medical treatment, rehabilitation, and recovery. To support Alyssa's journey, her family has set up a GoFundMe campaign. Every donation, no matter the size, as well as every share and prayer, is profoundly appreciated.
