At Ramsey Elementary School in Coeur d'Alene, teachers, staff members, parents and students are working together to provide extra support for the family of Coeur d'Alene Police Sgt. Greg Moore.

Moore was shot and killed May 5 after stopping to question a suspicious person he observed while on patrol. His wife, Lindy Moore, is a third-grade teacher at Ramsey.

Last week, Coeur d'Alene School District Superintendent Matt Handelman sent an email to all district staff members with the details of Moore's memorial service and funeral, which were held Saturday.

"I want to assure you that in addition to Ramsey's staff taking great care of Lindy, and our community providing more (the downtown Rotary of which I'm a part just collected over $10,000 for the family), our district is ensuring that we are providing many layers of support to Lindy," Handelman wrote. "This includes ensuring that Lindy has paid leave through the end of this school year."

Lindy and Moore have a 1-year-old daughter, Gemma, and Moore has a son, Dylon, 12.

Thousands of people attended Moore's funeral last weekend, and within a week, more than $160,000 in donations had been collected to help the family - with more on the way.

Following the shooting, Ramsey Elementary parents and staff immediately began bringing meals to Lindy. They will continue to do so until May 15 when the police department will take over delivering food.

Staff, students and parents have worn blue and handed out and hung blue ribbons at the school.

Butcher paper was posted around the school last week for students and parents to write words of encouragement that were delivered to Lindy.

Staff members ordered blue shirts, which they wore to the memorial service. During the procession, the teachers and staff stood together so Lindy could see the blue shirts and feel their support.

Lindy's co-workers have worked together to cover each other's duties, lessons and meetings at the school so staff members could be free to be with her.

Her students made her cards and wrote personal messages in them.

Other schools are stepping up as well.

"Lindy has a lot of friends and colleagues in many of our schools," said Laura Rumpler, the school district's communications director, in a message to The Press.
