It has been 38 yrs now. My father long past. My heart continues to feel the pain of his loss. Being the youngest now 60 yoa on Aug 3 1982 receiving the call. Pronounced deceased Aug 5. My Dads death as described on site is inaccurate . it was determined and proven he was struck at the axis of head by assailant john Taylor (who knew karate) struck my father. This was final determination after exchumation examination by Dr. M. Biden. Needless loss of a up and up cop. I don't say this because he was my dad.. He was upright . in honor daddy I miss u . at my age I will meet u again soon. All my love (a)nita
