Georgetown Police Department Officer Michelle Gattey has passed away.
“Today, the Georgetown Police Department has suffered another tremendous loss and we are heartbroken,” the Georgetown Police Department said. “Officer Michelle Gattey passed away after a courageous battle with COVID-19. Officer Gattey was 44 years old. Officer Gattey served our country for 23 years in the United States Air Force before joining the Georgetown Police Department as an intern. During her internship, Officer Gattey decided she wanted to serve our community and be a police officer. Officer Gattey attended the police academy in late 2020. Officer Gattey began her service as a police officer in January of 2021 and was recently selected to be our next Victim’s Service Coordinator. Officer Gattey will be remembered for her wonderful smile, her soft-spoken manner, and her commitment to our country and our community. She truly exemplified what it means to have a servant heart. Her family, her friends, and all of us will miss her more than words can describe. Rest easy sister. We have the watch.”
Our thoughts and prayers are the Officer Gattey’s family and friends, and the Georgetown Police Department.
