Business Extends Beyond Kitchen and Bathroom Solutions to Fix Memorial

By Charlotte Hopkins

When Jamie Coughenour first learned that the Law Enforcement Officers Memorial of Allegheny County was damaged and in need of repair, she knew exactly who to call – Lexmar USA.

Jason Coughenour, Jamie Coughenour, and Rick Geppert, Secretary of the Law Enforcement Officers Memorial of Allegheny County, were happy to service those who lost their lives servicing us.

The company's owner (and her brother-in-law), Jason Coughenour, did not think twice before stepping up to the plate to restore the monument dedicated to the men and women in blue.
Lexmar USA, based out of McKeesport, is widely known for their kitchen and bathroom solutions that feature top-quality marble. The company also builds beautiful outdoor grills. Equipped with everything needed to repair the memorial, the Lexmar crew answered the call.
The memorial at the North Shore was recently vandalized. The site is maintained by donations and they were unable to fix the damage immediately. The Lexmar company was disheartened that such an act could be done to a selfless group of Americans who lost their lives in the line of duty. They offered to repair the marble at no cost.

The memorial is more than a stone wall with the etched names of polices officers of Allegheny County. This a place that echoes the footsteps of fallen police officers, a place of solitude for friends and families and city residents to come and reflect on the heroic efforts given by each officer. Each name on that wall tells a story of a police officer who died to protect others. Simply put, these men and women put their lives on the line everyday because inside, they feel a duty to protect and serve their communities.

Lexmar and the communities that encircle this monument thank each one of those officers who names will never be forgotten. And to the law enforcement officers who continue to patrol the streets today – Vest up and be safe! Lexmar USA has your back.
