Honoring the Life and Service of Sergeant Brandon Miles: A Legacy of Courage, Integrity, and Compassion
It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Sergeant Brandon Miles, a devoted public servant and beloved member of both his department and his community. Sergeant Miles passed away in 2025, concluding a 17-year career marked by exceptional service, selfless dedication, and an unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of others.
From the moment he joined the force in April 2007, Brandon Miles displayed a rare combination of strength, humility, and compassion. Through nearly two decades of service, he rose through the ranks with honor—earning the trust and respect of fellow officers, community members, and countless individuals whose lives he touched. He wasn’t just a law enforcement officer; he was a protector, a mentor, and a symbol of integrity who consistently went above and beyond the call of duty.
Brandon served with a steady hand and a full heart, never seeking praise or recognition for his efforts. Yet those who worked alongside him knew they were in the presence of someone extraordinary. Whether patrolling city streets, mentoring new recruits, or assisting families in times of crisis, Sergeant Miles approached every task with a calm resolve and a sense of purpose rooted in service. His presence commanded respect—not through force, but through fairness, empathy, and an unshakeable moral compass.
Colleagues remember him as a dependable leader, a teacher with patience, and a source of quiet strength in times of uncertainty. His ability to de-escalate tense situations, to offer comfort to those in distress, and to lead by example made him not only an exemplary officer but also a treasured human being. Younger officers looked up to him, not just for his professionalism but for his kindness and humility.
Outside the badge, Brandon was a devoted husband, a loving father, a cherished son, and a loyal friend. He believed in the power of community, the importance of family, and the value of showing up for others, no matter the hour or the burden. His loved ones describe him as someone who could light up a room with his smile and bring reassurance simply by being present.
His passing leaves a tremendous void—not only in the department where he served with such distinction but in the hearts of all who knew him. While the pain of his loss is immeasurable, so too is the gratitude for the years we had with him, the protection he offered, and the lives he helped shape.
Plans for a full honors memorial service are underway to commemorate his service and to celebrate the legacy of a man who dedicated his life to the greater good. Details will be shared with the public in the coming days, as fellow officers, family, and community members gather to pay tribute to a true hero.
In a profession where courage is a daily requirement, Sergeant Brandon Miles stood out for the courage he brought not only to the job but to every aspect of his life. His was a life of purpose, of quiet heroism, and of service that will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace, Sergeant Miles. Your watch has ended, but your legacy lives on. We are forever grateful. 🖤💙🖤
