For an agency to exist for only 3 years to lose 10 Officers is heartbreaking.

Today marks the 145th anniversary of your murder. I hope and pray that Mr. Yoast faced true justice either in this world or the next. The mayhem he caused over an essentially trivial matter can never be erased nor can it be truly forgiven.

I hope the Werner family has kept his memory alive through the generations, he earned it.

God Bless, Brother and may your eternal rest be ever peaceful.
