Cooperville, MI (WGHN) – State Rep. Luke Meerman (R-Coopersville) welcomed Fire Chief Travis Kroll of the Coopersville Polkton Fire Department to the Michigan House of Representatives’ annual 9-11 Memorial Ceremony in the House chamber on Thursday.
The ceremony included the ringing of a fire bell in memory of every first responder and public safety officer who died honorably in the line of duty throughout Michigan in the past year.
