For Police Officer Henry Nelson:

The law-officer on patrol is all that usually stands between those who are assaulted and a sometimes crazed and particularly vicious individual who is capable of almost any act including murder in his frenzy. We regret that Henry would be the next law-officer to have to confront such a demented killer alone and be suddenly attacked. Hesitation might well have cost him his life in an attempt to act humanely and with compassion.
We pray for Henry's family, co-workers, friends and all who care about him. May they be ready to reach-out to one another in the days ahead.
We are proud to render Officer Henry Nelson, a soldier-of-the-law, a final salute.
