is proud to recognize this week’s Hometown Hero: City of Atchison Master Patrol Police Officer Alex Moore, nominated by his wife, Jodi Moore.
Jodi shared that Alex’s service to the community goes far beyond his role as a police officer—it’s a reflection of who he is at his core. An Atchison/Denton, Kansas native, Alex has deep roots in the community he now serves and protects. Before his career in law enforcement, he also proudly served in the United States Air Force, demonstrating his commitment to serving others and his country long before joining the Atchison Police Department. He is deeply committed to building trust, showing compassion, and being someone, the community feels comfortable approaching. Whether it’s a child asking for a high five, a teenager stopping to say hello, or a resident expressing gratitude, Alex consistently leaves a lasting impression on those he serves.
One of the most impactful ways Alex gives back is through the 'Heroes Helping Program' he started. Through this initiative, he has helped hundreds of children begin the school year with new school supplies and shoes, ensuring they feel confident and prepared. According to Jodi, seeing those kids smile is what drives him—it’s never about recognition, but about making a difference.
Alex takes great pride in protecting and serving the City of Atchison, Kansas Local Government, carrying himself with integrity and respect in every interaction. To many, he is Officer Moore, but to the community, he is also a mentor, a role model, and a positive force in countless lives.
Thank you, Officer Moore, for your dedication and service—and thank you to Jodi Moore for this heartfelt nomination. Your impact on the Atchison community does not go unnoticed.
Proudly partnered with Lentz Express Catering and Wilson Tire — serving our communities together.
