The fallen officer has since been identified as Mandeville Police Captain Vincent Liberto Jr.

"Such a beautiful tribute to an awesome husband, father, son, grandfather, officer, and friend!"
Julie Herrington Hebert says:
"I have three wow moments watching this:
1-Wow to the support of a fallen officer who was also a military hero.
2-Wow to the band director who led those amazing students in a complete rendition of Amazing Grace Just moments before the game.
3-Wow, Wow, Wow to a secular public school and its members for acknowledging & respecting the Judeo Christian values of our country and playing a Christian song of reverence before a secular public football game!"
