Reflections for Motorcycle Officer Hal Clovis Stephenson
I've always been proud of my Father and his service to our country in the Navy and to the City of Fort Worth as a FWPD motor officer. I was 2 and a half when he passed at age 35, so I don't have many memories of him. I was fortunate to speak with Tommy Tucker and other FWPD motor officers over the years who helped fill in gaps regarding "Steve's" work life. They all agreed that he had a friendly, easy-going demeanor, a natural leader and even motorists he ticketed never had a complaint. His Stephenson legacy lives on in his grandsons and granddaughter, and his impact on our lives will never be forgotten. Thank you for remembering him.

I have always been proud of my Uncle Hal. He was full of fun, taught me how to water ski on Lake Grapevine. Passed too early, I was only 11. Remember fondly crawling up on his white Harley electroglide solo seat in the garage when I visited. He is one of my heroes.
