More then 100 police officers, family members and public officials were in attendance to honor fallen police officers during the Peace Officer's Candlelight Memorial Ceremony in the plaza courtyard of the Government Center Monday night.

During the ceremony 53 police officers names were called out and family members and friends were escorted with a single red rose to be placed in a vase in the fallen officer's memory.

Seven of those officers who died just last were members of the Georgia Police Department.
