Melissa Styles has been a valued member of York Regional Police since 2004. Her passion for helping others does not go unnoticed. On June 28, 2011, Melissa lost her husband, Constable Garrett Styles in the line of duty. She has turned her tragedy into strength and spends countless hours volunteering her time to help others. Her resiliency has been an inspiration to many. She is considered a role model and a friend.

Melissa is a big supporter of Special Olympics Ontario and has been one of the top fundraisers for the Torch Run and the Polar Plunge. She continues to champion an annual blood donor clinic in Garrett’s name, as well as the Ride for Styles, which has raised over $130,000 for York Region charities.

We are very proud of Melissa and would like to see her recognized for her dedication and loyalty to policing and the community.
