COEUR d’ALENE — Alan Golub considers Greg Moore, Bryan Moore and Tobin Bolter heroes.

“It was so dangerous for these guys,” Golub said. “Every time they went out, there was a chance they might not return home.”

They didn’t.

Brian Moore, a New York City police officer, was slain on duty May 2, 2015. He was 25.

Greg Moore, a Coeur d’Alene police officer, was slain on duty May 5, 2015. He was 43.

Bolter, an Ada County Sheriff’s deputy, died after he was shot in the line of duty April 20, 2024. He was 27.

“It’s a very dangerous time,” Golub said.

He doesn’t want them forgotten.

The Hayden man created a poster of both Brian Moore and Greg Moore, which he presented to their departments. He referred to the men as “brothers in blue.”

Golub later met Ray Moore, Brian Moore’s father.

“He was amazed that someone from Idaho traveled to New York to honor his son,” Golub said.

In response, he told Ray Moore, “People that you never met in Idaho love you and are praying for you.”

On Wednesday, he used what he calls his “blending” technique to combine images on a poster of Greg Moore and Bolter. Both are smiling and proud. It includes their names, titles and date they were slain, and the words, “In loving memory of our Idaho heroes.”

“I’m humbled to be able to do that,” he said.

Golub said he wants to keep the memory of fallen officers alive across the nation.

“I can't believe it's been nine years since Greg's death,” he wrote. 

He said after seeing some of the procession in Boise on Tuesday for Bolter, he was inspired to create another image, this one with Bolter and Moore.

It was much the same way he was inspired after watching the May 9, 2015, memorial procession for Sgt. Greg Moore.

“To honor them both,” Golub said.

He hopes that people see his latest work and it will encourage respect and unity, and dispel negativity about police.

“We’re one family,” he said.
