On today, the 60th 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 for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Army as a member of the 3rd Infantry Regiment-“The Old Guard.” And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
