The memorial for the two Spokane County Sheriff's Office deputies who were shot and killed last week in Spangle will be held Wednesday at Numerica Veterans Arena in Spokane.
The sheriff's office announced on Thursday the memorial service for Parker Perry and Mason Acheson.
"This memorial will pay tribute to each of them," the sheriff's office said in a news release. "Each lived their lives in service to their families, faith, community, country, and team members."
Perry, 29, and Acheson, 35, were responding Nov. 3 to a domestic violence call at a home off South Smythe Road when they were ambushed by gunfire. Deputies were called to the home after a woman reported her brother, 37-year-old Ryan T. Larsen, shot her in the chest. She was taken to the hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
Deputies launched a drone and discovered a body in the yard, but believed more victims were in the home.
Parker and his K-9, Brego, along with Acheson and others attempted to break down the door of the home when Perry and Acheson were shot.
Larsen is believed to have killed his mother, Suzanne Larsen, and his sister, Rebecca Larsen, before turning the gun on himself.
Both deputies were hospitalized in critical condition before Acheson died that night and Perry passed three days later after donating his organs, according to the sheriff's office.
Both were married with two children, and Perry had a third child on the way.
Perry was hired by the sheriff's office in 2020 and became a K-9 deputy last year. Acheson was hired in 2022, worked the day shift downtown and served on the SWAT team as a trained sniper.
Both were assigned to the Army National Guard's 81st Brigade's 1-161st Infantry Battalion and earned several medals.
The memorial service start time and route for the procession will be released in the coming days, the sheriff's office said. Seating will be reserved for families, friends, the Washington Army National Guard, law enforcement and first responders prior to the memorial. Following the reserved seating arrangements, the public will be welcome to attend.
The sheriff's office encouraged the community to line the route to honor the deputies.
Those wanting to help cover the cost of the memorial service can visit any Canopy Credit Union branch and request to donate to the SCOPE/SCSO Memorial Fund, call the branch directly or drop off a check at any Canopy Credit Union location. People can also drop off checks directly at the sheriff's office, or donate via Venmo @SpokaneSCOPE.
Additional funds will go directly to the deputies' families.
