Hundreds of people — both law enforcement and members of the Mississippi Coast community — paid their final respects to fallen Bay St. Louis officers Steven Robin and Branden Estorffe at a memorial service on Wednesday.

Bay St. Louis Police Chief Toby Schwartz and State Rep. Brent Anderson delivered eulogies for the officers who were killed in the line of duty last week while responding to a welfare check at Motel 6 on Highway 90 in Bay St. Louis.

The shooter, Coast veterinarian Amy Brogdon Anderson, was shot and killed by Estorffe as the 23-year-old fell to the ground after being shot by Anderson.

Families of both police officers attended the memorial at Bay St. Louis Community Hall and said their final goodbyes at Gardens of Memory cemetery.

Both caskets were wrapped by Casey Lawhon and dozens of blue and black floral arrangements adorned the memorial space.
