Just saw roughly 10-15 DPD cruisers with lights on heading S I-25 near I-70. A long train of vehicles in a row and moving fast. Nothing on the scanners. What’s up?

Deputy Parrish’s funeral is today , they are closing 1-25 this morn ?
They are all staging near Happy Canyon.
Anticipated closure of I-25 from Castle Rock to Lincoln Ave for roughly 2 hours for the funeral procession. RIP Deputy Parrish!

Saw the video this morning of the procession- 100s maybe even 1000s of LE/Fire/EMS lining I-25 as the procession came through. I would have joined our agency's contingent but I had a dr. appt this morning that I couldn't cancel. So heartwarming to see the support coming out for a fallen brother.

Darn it. Wish I would have known that was this morning. Made a trip down to Bowers and back. I could have been speeding since traffic patrol likely wasn’t high on the list of priorities this morning.
Literally a line of LEOs parked bumper to bumper on I25 from Castle Pines all the way up to the Lincoln exit. That is probably about 5 miles long. I had no idea there were that many police cars in the state! Very impressive show of support all over this morning. Tough drive in for sure!
Many also came from out of state to pay their respects.

Had friends in the motorcade this morning, they estimated it somewhere around 2,000 cars is their guess. I saw every police department and sheriff's department from Colorado not to mention other states. Amazing service.
I was at work and missed seeing this but I understand it was an amazing show of respect for the fallen deputy - as it should have been.
While I know it isn't practical, I wish we could have similar shows of respect for fallen troops. Anyone who falls while serving, ie. providing for the safety and well being of others, deserves to be remembered and honored for their sacrifice.
What occured today is but a small token of what his sacrifice deserves, but given our humanly limitations, it was still quite amazing.
