Donation protected
On August 8, 2024, the city of Nashville lost a hero. Cpl. Patrick C. Messina, was a dedicated member of the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office for the past two years. His unwavering commitment and compassionate spirit touched countless lives, and now, in the wake of this tragedy, we have the opportunity to honor his memory and support his family during this difficult time. 

Cpl. Messina joined the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office with a heart full of purpose and a mission to make a difference. Known for his bravery on the job and his warm, approachable demeanor off-duty, Patrick was a beloved figure in our community. He had a unique ability to connect with people from all walks of life, offering a helping hand or a reassuring word to those in need. Patricks dedication was evident in everything he did. Whether it was stepping in during emergency situations, or just giving you a laugh because you were having a rough day, he always went above and beyond. His colleagues remember him as a selfless goof ball, who would do anything to put a smile on your face and a friend who could turn even the most challenging moments into opportunities for hope and support. 

On August 8th, Officer Messina tragically passed away in his home. This is a profound loss not only to his family and friends but to the entire community that he served with such honor. Supporting the Messina Family: Officer Messina leaves behind his loving wife, and their children.
