My dad last week, who was a friend and co-worker of Maj. Richard Beavers, Lt. John M. Fyfe died of complications of a 2nd stroke. I remember Rich as one of my dad's best friends, and the one that came over to the house the most after the 1st stroke in 1981.

He had a long life, but he struggled every day with his disability. His first love was the job (PG PD/narcotics), and the men and women that he worked with. I want to say thank you for your friendship to my dad.

God Speed.
