"We know we cannot replace Tim, but we can be there for his family when we are needed," Memphis Police Officer Amensaid said in a statement. "It was truly an honor."

But the show of support didn't end with local police. Area businesses donated flowers and photography to the cause, and a regional police association donated money for Jewel's dress and transportation.

Amanda Swain, who donated her photography services to the event, told TODAY.com:

"They most definitely made sure that night will never be forgotten. I know I won't forget it, and I'm positive Officer Warren smiled several times as he looked on from above."
