While your assailants never faced justice they surely faced a higher justice at a later time in a different place. Thank you for your service and rest in peace always knowing that no passage of time will ever erase your heroic actions and sacrifice.

Inspector Rumsey was my great uncle. His life and the life of my family have an interesting story in regards to the history of the U.S. Mexican border. A complicated history that I am researching and have recently published about.

My grandfather his brother in law was known in our family to have been a bootlegger.

Sincerely,
