Public has ways to honor officers
Web sites, song, services, funds let strangers help
BY LISA DONOVAN
The Cincinnati Enquirer
From Web sites to a public memorial, those mourning the deaths of slain Cincinnati police officers Ronald Jeter and Daniel Pope have several outlets to express their grief, condolences or even offer a ''spiritual'' farewell.
The memorial service will be Dec. 22 from noon to 1 p.m. at the Albert B. Sabin Convention Center.
Clergy from various denominations will preside over the ''tribute - prayer service.'' It is being coordinated by Cincinnati Councilman Dwight Tillery and WLW-AM radio talk show host Bill Cunningham. Several Web sites are honoring the officers, including some high-tech sites that play ''Taps,'' a bagpipe tribute and even a gun salute. Some even have message boards where mourners can offer their condolences.
