I knew this officer personally in 1970. He was a decent man and a dedicated police officer. I knew his family also. i lived up the street from him. I never forgot this sad event. He left a wife and child. His father, mother and sisters were great Americans.

God Bless You Brother. I hope to see you again one day.

As my career's end is coming closer, I decided to check and find those who had lost their lives during the year that I was hired. While it's been many years since your passing, I'm sure those you left behind and those whom with you served with distinction have kept you alive in their memories. Thank you for your service and for looking out for us who continue in our chosen profession. Rest in peace Investigator.
