John Durm, Jr., his eldest, “winged it,” the way he said his father would have, and spoke briefly of the deputy's boundless kindness and vivacity. The life of the party, their dad was known to show up to work with donuts to share.Second-eldest son Cory, who is now in the police academy, broke the somber mood by asking those with tearful, sad eyes to instead smile and give his father a round of applause.
Durm's tragic end is, Sheriff Kerry Forestal said, “a poignant reminder that the work of our police officers is not merely a profession, it is a calling.” Former NBA star Reggie Miller, who spent his entire 18-year career with the Pacers, made a video appearance, telling Durm’s family that any time he crossed paths with the deputy, all he could talk about was his overflowing joy for his family.And like he has at the funerals of other slain officers, Marion County Lt. Bryan Wolfe performed an original rendition of Amazing Grace that includes a “Policeman’s Tribute.
