As my sister wrote above, our mother has never forgotten her father who she lost at such a young age. We would have loved to have met this man whom our mother clearly adored. May our grandfather continue to rest in peace and watch over us.

Detective John Kranz took police action as he saw fit. He is a true hero who had no fear of the underworld. May he rest in peace. He will never be forgotten.
