Officer Underwood,
On today, the 60th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Air Force as an Air Policeman. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Officer Underwood,
Thank you for your dedicated service in protecting your community. This incident is a tragedy and the fact that two firefighters and you were taken from this community by a "prank" is deeply disheartening. Rest easy sir, you will not be forgotten.
