Greg needed to find purpose in his fight with cancer. He realized that as a police officer his approach to problem solving was different then someone with a "normal" job. After attending different cancer support groups he saw that the groups were lacking a certain understanding that only a brother or sister law enforcement officer could understand. In this he found purpose, bringing officers together who have experienced cancer and provide the support that they understand. Greg lost his battle with cancer in September of 2007. Cops with Cancer was formed as a way to continue his dream and honor his memory.
Officer Greg Duffin,
you will always be
Forever in Our Hearts.
It is our desire to provide support to the men and women of our law enforcement community in Washington State who have been diagnosed with cancer. By providing support we can help these officers and their families deal with the emotional impact of this illness. Our desire is to also help the agencies these officers work for. How an officer diagnosed with cancer is treated by their agency plays a major role in their battle.
