Officer Myers was my uncle, taken way too soon. Although his given name was Lester Grant, he was known as Bill to all his family. I just found this memorial to him and it is heartwarming to see that sixty years later he is still being remembered and honored. He was a truly respected and loved motorcycle cop from everything I have heard, Thanks to all who have remembered him here, God Bless
