Mr. Roche,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Coutry when you served during the Korean War and secondly for the citizens of Massachusetts when you served as a Law Enforcement Officer. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
