Trooper Fields, I got to know you through one of your daughters. I applauded her, just a few minutes ago, as an achievement was recognized by her peers. You can be very proud of the woman she’s become.

Thank you for your service to the people of Michigan. May God grant you eternal rest and may His perpetual light shine upon you.
