Hawthorne police officer Andrew Garton was escorting a police funeral procession in Torrance last week when his motorcycle collided with another. He was thrown into oncoming traffic and hit. We wanted to let you know that a public memorial service will be held at 12:30 p.m. Friday at Seacoast Grace Church, 5100 Cerritos Ave., in Cypress. Organizers encourage those planning to attend to arrive early.
Hawthorne police have established a fund to help Garton's family. Donations should be made to the Hawthorne Police Officers Association, care of Officer Andrew Garton's Family, account number 654404-006. They can be sent to Western Federal Credit Union, 14500 S. Aviation Blvd., Hawthorne 90250; or to the Hawthorne Police Department, 12501 S. Hawthorne Blvd., Hawthorne 90250.
If you can’t attend the funeral or provide a donation, please take a moment to pray for Andrew’s wife Tracy and two sons, Garrett, 12, and Grant, 7 during this difficult time.
