Patrolman Clancy,
On today, the 100th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but also when you served with the Canadian Army in Europe fighting the Germans on the Western Front during WW I. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Yesterday on Friday was the anniversary of your line of duty death and no matter how much time passes you are never forgotten. I am a resident of the great city of Boston, Massachusetts and I thank you for your proven dedication to this nation. Thank you for your service in the U.S. Military during the First World War and thank you for your service for the city of Boston. This will always be a tremendous loss for our city and nation. When I attend the 4:00PM Mass at St. Brigid of Kildare I will be praying and thinking of you William.
