Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Jeremy Keith,

My name is Michael Key. I live in Oklahoma and my dad is Jimmy B. Key. I knew my dad was a Del City Police officer in the early to mid 1960s and that he had resigned, but I didn't know the reason why until just a few days ago. You see my dad is 87 and is not doing well and he began to cry and when I asked what was bothering him, he told me that his very good buddy Bill Keith had died in 1965 in a high-speed chase situation. My dad said it devastated him to the point that he could no longer fulfill his duties and that he then later resigned due to the accident. My dad has had many different carriers since that moment, but I have often wondered what his life would have been if circumstances would have been different. I know it has been nearly 60 years since that fateful day, but I wanted to tell you that I can truly feel some of your pain when I was looking into my dad's crying eyes as he was conveying the story. I hope you and your family have peace and God be with you.
