Mr. Driscoll,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Country when you served in the USN during the Korean War and secondly for the citizens of the Commonwealth when you served as a Massachusetts State Trooper. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
