On 20th September 2002, the Police & Peace Officers' Memorial Ribbon Society unveiled the limited edition print "Salute to our Fallen Heroes". The Society commissioned artist Brian Cunningham to paint a picture honouring all police and peace officers. The print was unveiled at RCMP HQ 'E' Division, Vancouver, with the 1/950 being dedicated to Cst. Wael Audi of Squamish RCMP who died earlier this year in a motor vehicle accident.
