WISCONSIN (WTAQ-WRN) — Milwaukee Police Officer Peter Jerving is being remembered in the city he served and across the state of Wisconsin.
Jerving’s funeral will be held today. Until then, a Milwaukee Police Department honor guard will watch over his casket at a Brookfield funeral home until the time of the funeral.
Today’s services will have a police procession carrying Jerving’s casket to Brookfield’s Elmbrook Church, and another procession carrying the casket from the church to the cemetery. Thousands of people, including police departments from across the state and country, are expected to attend.
