Constable Neil McMillan (aka MacMillan) served the citizens of Vancouver (BC) from January 1912 until February 1918.
While carrying out research on this officer, I discovered that he had left for Seattle shortly thereafter and joined the Seattle Police Department in late 1920, only to be killed in the line of duty after 17 days of service. His remains were transported back to Vancouver where they were police escorted to the train that would take his final journey back home to Nova Scotia.
Constable and Patrolman, you will not be forgotten. Your watch is done; 10-7.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the ninety-first anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Time never dimishes respect and you will always be honored and revered.
Rest In Peace

90 years ago your life was taken as you protected the citizens of Seattle, but we have not forgotten.
Rest in peace, Officer McMillan.

88 years ago you gave your life. But justice was swift. It turns slowly these days
and someone can sit on death row for years. Some things have NOT improved
with time. Thanks for serving the Emerald City and the Evergreen State!
