Officers, friends, family and community members gathered on two weeks ago to celebrate and remember the life of Officer Evan Burns. "Evan was a father, brother, uncle, officer and friend who was taken from us on August 16, 2011 while serving his community. Many admired him; he had a heart of gold. He second greatest pride in life was his service. His first was being a father. His son Cade won't have the opportunity to know his dad like we did, but he is the spitting image of him. Cade, you will always be surrounded with his love, and we will always be here for you to tell your about the great man that your dad was," said Caruthersville Chief of Police Tony Jones.
