To the Trower Family of the former Princess Anne County,

I pay respect to, and honor your fallen family member, Police Officer St Elmo C. Trower, for his service to the former Princess Anne County, Virginia, my home for several years while growing to maturity. I too, served my community with the then Virginia Beach, Virginia Police Department.

You will be remembered!
