Our hearts are heavy as we share the passing of our longtime Chaplain, Doug Green. For more than 40 years, Chaplain Green has been a guiding presence within the Belleview Police Department — a steady source of comfort, prayer, and friendship for generations of officers and their families. His kind spirit and unwavering faith carried our department through countless difficult moments, and his compassion reached far beyond the badge and uniform.

Chief Holland shared, “Chaplain Green was more than a member of this department — he was family. His faith, compassion, and quiet strength shaped our culture in ways that will never be forgotten.”

Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Maudie, and the entire Green family during this difficult time.
