Playground Dedication - Our Fallen Hero
Special Olympics Canada is saddened to learn of the tragic loss of a dear friend who has made a considerable contribution to so many. Constable Robert Plunkett, an Ontario Officer with York Region Police Services, was a leader in both the community and to the Special Olympics organization. Constable Plunkett was involved with the Law Enforcement Torch Run for over 15 years and the 1997 World Winter Games. Through his long standing support of our organization he also served as the Chairman for the 2000 Special Olympics Ontario Provincial Games. Through his leadership over $1 million was raised for the Special Olympic Games. In addition, as a result of his devotion and support the Law Enforcement Torch Run has grown significantly in Ontario raising funds and awareness for athletes with an intellectual disability. Our sincere sympathy and condolences go out to Constable Plunkett's wife and children. He will be dearly missed.
