Sgt. Don Flusche,
I was a sector Sergeant 250, at Northeast Patrol, working alongside you, 1st watch when you had that terrible accident up on Greenville Avenue in my sector sergeant squad on my night off. I had the great honor of seeing and working with you for almost a year. You were the best of us.
