View all 11 ReflectionsYou never knew me, John James McKenzie, but I have come to know something of you. I'm your Great Grandson, David James LeRay Jr and also proudly served for 29 years with the MBTA Police Department out of Boston. My mother was your Grand-daughter, Barbara Ann McKenzie, your son Albert's little girl. After retiring from the T, I spent the next 11 years as a Court Security Officer at the Moakley Federal Courthouse in South Boston (Special Deputy). I did a brief stint as a Special Deputy for the Suffolk County Sheriff's Department. RIP, brother. See you on the other side.
