Reflections for Chief Probation Officer Lucile M. Myers
It's now been 96 years.
Chief Meyers, you put yourself at risk for the sake of children in need and you are a hero for that as well as all the work you did. You are also a hero because you were a pioneer for women in law enforcement. Though it's not known if your murderer was ever caught, I pray he faced true justice, if not in this world, then in the next.
Sister, thank you for your service. May God Bless you and may your eternal rest be ever peaceful.
And I acknowledge your son's courage and know God had him with you for a reason, though that horrible tragedy must have haunted him all his life. I don't know what happened to your offspring, but I hope and pray they followed your example and did good things.

You were a pioneer in law enforcement and a true advocate for those who so desperately needed one. Though it's not known if the father was ever captured, no doubt he faced true justice, if not in this world, then in the next.
God Bless you Sister and may your eternal rest be ever peaceful.
