For 40 years, I never really knew why I only had one grandfather. "Grandpa had died, when I was a child" was about all that was offered and accepted. While I never met my grandfather, I know he was an honerable, moral, hard working, caring, loving person. He had to be. The apple does not fall far from the apple tree, and my father and Aunt are a testiment to this.

I Love You,
Matt

Love,
Your great grandson

Even though I never met you in person, I still have the utmost respect for you. It is true that I only found out about you because of a project, but I'm glad I did. What you did was courageous. You are truly a great man. And for that you deserve to be remembered.

Rest in peace.

I served several years with Middlesex County Sheriffs Dept prior to transferring to a Police Dept. This is the first I heard of this incident and it is a shame that hero's who made the ultimate sacrifice arent memorialized within that agency. I am glad that this website is correcting that and that this fallen officer is finally recieving the recognition due to him. Rest in peace brother !!

Even though we discovered your loss late, it doesn't diminish the fact that you fell in the line of duty.

I hope you are at peace in all ways. You died protecting society from those who would do us harm. You are a true hero.

Rest in peace.
