The 100 Club, a non-profit organization supporting families of fallen officers, has a very moving tribute to all law enforcement and emergency personnel who have lost their lives in Arizona since 1865, long before Arizona became a state.  See their biographies at: http://www.100club.org/web/100CLUB/Remembering_the_Fallen/Roll_Call_of_Heroes/100CLUB/Remembering/RollCall.aspx
