I will be remembering, and mentioning, Sgt Stell at a meeting today, which was called to rebuke me for publicly supporting blue lives, at a small liberal arts college where I work. His soul, and the consolation of my family, are in my prayers.

"Down these mean streets a man must go, who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished or afraid. He is the hero; he is everything. He must be a complete man and a common man and yet an unusual man. He must be, to use a rather weathered phrase, A Man of Honor"...A Police Officer
Sergeant Kenneth Steil was such a man.
When a man chooses to become a Police Officer, his greatest act of bravery has been accomplished. What he does after that is all in the line of duty.
GOD Bless & GOD Speed Sgt Steil
