Fallen Officer Memorial Bench
Has your community lost a local hero? A fallen officer memorial bench will pay tribute to their life. This particular bench was made to honor the late Jospeh Shinners. Officer Shinners, of Provo, was killed in the line of duty January 5, 2019. Smith Steelworks and Critical Laser worked in conjunction to bring this bench to fruition.

Fallen Officer Memorial Bench Process
Memorial Bench Plan
First, wonder how to design a fallen officer memorial bench? Benches are available with choice of color, bench style, artwork, and lettering. Cobalt Blue, Classic Arch Style, a police badge, and the Wasatch Mountain range were used on this memorial bench.
Bench Mockup
Second, ready to see your ideas take shape? Our design team reviews your concept and creates a bench mockup. The mockup will be emailed to you for approval. You have a chance to examine the spelling, dates, artwork, and have any changes made.
Bench Production
Third, the bench is cut from a single sheet of metal and bent into place. Next, arms and legs are welded to the bench body. Last, the bench goes through a three-step powder coating process. Powder coat is twice as thick as paint and resistant to chips, scratches, and rust.
Purpose Of Fallen Officer Memorial Bench
Memorial benches are aesthetically pleasing and brighten up any landscape. Furthermore, they provide a spot to share stories, memories, and mourn those that have passed. As a result, the bench can help family and friends with loss.
