Mourning Funeral Banners

 Purple represents the protection law enforcement and firefighters offer their communities. Black symbolizes the mourning of our heroes. Together, these colors indicate the mourning of a fireman or officer. Traditionally, members of these communities show they're grieving with a black strip over their fireman patch or officer shield logo. 

Police stations and firehouses put purple and black displays over walkways, signs and buildings to indicate mourning. Firetrucks often show flags at funeral processions or honor those who have passed away with a banner or fabric draped over a casket.
