Bucks For Bosco

Posts Tagged ‘Money Drive’

Hi Folks, I wanted you all to know about another Police Officer who got injured in the line of duty. Deputy Ed Miller of the Perry County Sheriff’s Office has been off work for sometime now with breathing difficulties after investigating a meth lab where he inhaled something that has caused him severe breathing difficulties. It now looks like this injury will stay with Ed for the rest of his life. As a former officer who was injured in the line of duty I know how trying an on the job injury can be on you and your family. With that said let me tell the story. Ed who I consider a personal friend now finds himself in foreclosure on him home and that of his wife and two daughters. Due to him not being able to return to work. Ed has served Perry County as a law enforcement officer since 1991 many of you i am sure will know him if you saw him.

Ed and his family are in desperate need of our help. For those of you who will say well isn’t he getting paid by the BWC? No he isn’t they are now saying it is a pre-existing condition! I have know Ed for years , his breathing has always be fine. So you might ask, isn’t he on public assistance, yes he is and it is not enough, barely enough to keep the family in food and clothing. The thought of his two daughters not living in the home they have known since birth turns my stomach. This is a nice family and for such a terrible thing to happen to them is a true tragedy.

Please if you can help me help Ed and his family, no gift is to big or to small. Please tell everyone you know about this and about the benefit, we can use all the help we can get for these wonderful people.

Neighbors and Friends will be holding a benefit on Sat. March 6th from Noon to whenever at the New Lexington Eagles, everyone is welcome (children included till 8 p.m.).

Due to Ed’s breathing difficulties we ask that you please not wear any perfumes or hand lotions or hand sanitizers, I know this sound extreme but Ed has such a time just trying to breath we do not want to make it any worse form him. Ed and his family will be there for as long as Ed can handle it.

I would like to personally thank you in advance for any help you can bring to these great people and for all the support you have shown for my family.

Thank you,

Ryan Sharrer

We wanted to thank Value City Furniture for their generous donation to the Zanesville Police Department. Yesterday, a representative from the furniture store met with Chief Eric Lambes and Officer Michael Schiele to donate the funds necessary to purchase a new K-9 officer for the Zanesville Police Department from Pine Grove Kennel.

This new K-9 officer will work with Officer Schiele on the streets of Zanesville. Our beloved Bosco will still be working with Officer Schiele as part of the ZPD K-9 unit in the public relations division. Value City Furniture is part of a family of companies totaling over 125 stores throughout 19 states. They are headquartered in Columbus, Ohio.

To find a Value City Furniture store close to you, simply go to vcf.com and search under store locator.

It makes me feel blessed to know that even people outside of the Zanesville area care enough to give to our community, allowing us to help our officers and be safer in our community. It is with a heartfelt humble voice we The Zanesville Police Department, The Schiele Family and the City of Zanesville say thank you to Value City Furniture, for their donation, warm thoughts and prayers. We the Bosco Loving public will never forget all of you out there that have come forth to help and serve in our time of need. Thank you all for your Support! Ryan
