On this the 131st anniversary of your death your sacrifice and service are remembered.
Rest in peace as you patrol with St. Michael and all fallen
heroes in heaven.
Your story marks the passing of time, and it marks the sacrifice you gave.
The account of the incident reveals dedication to service and
it relays the tremendous loss to yourself and your family. The child you never new I am sure grew up to know about you.

While doing research into the early history of your Department, I was humbled, honored and privledged to have stumbled upon the story of your heroic death.
You are a true warrior and will never be forgotten.
