A wonderful constituent sent me this just now: Sulphur Springs tower lit blue for the late Jesse Madsen of Tampa Police Department for the five year anniversary of his last heroic act.

We remember today this amazing Tampa hero. Many, many people miss him in Tampa - and many, many people admire his remarkable courage.

[Tampa Police Department @TampaPD]

Tonight, the City of Tampa will be illuminated in blue to mark the five-year anniversary of the ultimate sacrifice made by Master Police Officer (MPO) Jesse Madsen. This tribute serves as a solemn reminder of MPO Madsen’s final act of bravery and a permanent commitment to honoring all Tampa Police Officers who have fallen in the line of duty.

We also hold the families of our fallen officers close in our hearts. Their stories will continue to be told, and their names will always be said, because a hero remembered is never forgotten.

Neighborhoods rally with their cops when there is strong leadership in City Hall. @BobBuckhorn is a case study for other Mayors across the country on how to be a leader. So proud that he was the leader that appointed me as our city’s Chief of Police. We need Bob Buckhorn back!

[Bob Buckhorn @BobBuckhorn]

A really challenging and tragic chapter in our city’s history but out of that horror I saw our city and the neighborhoods that were affected stand together like never before. In that darkness there was light. Thanks @FOX13News for covering. https://t.co/V2G0J2lDL4

@USFFootball beating the @GatorsFB is the BIGGEST win in program history!!

[Ryan Clark @Realrclark25]

Run the race that God has mapped for you, & don’t lose sight of the finish line comparing yourself to others. It’s impossible to run with purpose in someone else’s lane, & other runners can’t control your pace. There’s no podium for medals in real life. Either you finish your race or you don’t. You determine whether you win or lose.

RIP Cobra

[Pittsburgh Pirates @Pirates]

We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Hall of Famer Dave Parker.

A legendary Pirate, Parker spent 11 years in a Pirates uniform, winning 2 batting titles, an MVP award and a World Series Championship in 1979.

The Cobra was part of the inaugural Pirates Hall of Fame class in 2022, and will be enshrined in the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown next month.

[Brian Dugan @ChiefDuganRet]

Well deserved. Congratulations to one of Tampa greatest.
