Elementary school-aged kids who lined Main Street on Friday to show respect for a fallen hero saw the biggest event since Queen Elizabeth II paid a visit to this picturesque northern Wyoming town in 1984.

Or musician Prince, for that matter.

Prince came to the town’s old Centennial Theater in 1986 to see the premier of his movie “Under the Cherry Moon.”

“These eclipse those visits,” said Kurt Ilgen, a maintenance crew leader with Sheridan College where Sheridan Police Sgt. Nevada Krinkee’s memorial service was held Friday.
