GOLDEN, Colo. — A memorial service is scheduled for Wednesday to honor the life of Gold Police Officer Evan Dunn, who died Wednesday night after an alleged DUI driver crashed into him.

Dunn was 33 years old.

“Evan had a bright future and was destined for great things, and we will never get over his loss,” Golden Police Chief Joe Harvey said after the crash. “We can only continue to do the job he loved in his honor.”

Dunn is survived by his wife Annalise, their dog Remy, his parents and two brothers.

A memorial service for Dunn will be held at 1 p.m. Wednesday at Mission Hills Church in Littleton. The service is private and will not be recorded for the public, per his family’s wishes.

On Wednesday, Dunn’s body will be transported to the church on S. Santa Fe Drive eastbound along W. County Line Road, which will close around 10 a.m. between Lucent Boulevard and S. Elati Street, a said the Golden Police Department. The pilot of a Black Hawk helicopter from the 2-135th Aviation Regiment of the Colorado Army National Guard will fly over the area and land near the church before the service, so police are asking people not to fly drones around the area.

The community is welcome to show their support along W. County Line Road, between S. Santa Fe Drive and Lucent Boulevard, or at the memorial outside the Golden Police Department, located at 911 10th St. in Golden. Donations for Dunn’s family are welcome through the Colorado Fallen Hero Foundation.

“Annalise said Evan was first and foremost a faithful, loyal, steady, quiet and observant man,” the police department wrote on Facebook. “The couple shared a deep love of the outdoors, often camping and traveling together in their free time. She deeply appreciates the overwhelming support from the community.”

Before joining the Golden Police Department, Dunn was an Army aviation officer and Blackhawk pilot. He was also a captain in the Army National Guard, the police department said. He joined the department as a code enforcement officer and remained in that position for a year before entering the police academy. He graduated in July and was paired with Officer Bethany Grusing, his field training officer.

On Wednesday night, both Dunn and Grusing, as well as two civilians, were hit by a suspected DUI driver on Interstate 58 near Washington Avenue. Dunn died at the scene. A the suspect was arrested shortly after the accident.

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis ordered flags flown at half-staff on the day of Dunn’s memorial service.
