Kerry Dean Dick

Police Officer Kerry Dick died from complications as a result of contracting COVID-19 in the line of duty.

Officer Dick had served with the Rossville Police Department for over 14 years and had previously served 12 years with the Wamego Police Department.

Beginning in early 2020, thousands of law enforcement officers and other first responders throughout the country began to contract COVID-19 during the worldwide pandemic. Due to the nature of their job, law enforcement officers were required to work and interact with the community even as the majority of the country was self-quarantined. As a result, hundreds of officers died from COVID-related illnesses and other complications.
