My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Knowski family at this time. Mr Knowski is someone who I will always remember him from all the fun times on 60th place whether it was practicing football for St Nicks of just playing at the house.

I worked the wagon with Frank at the 9th District. A good Police Officer and a good man. Not many of those left. Rest in peace Frank, you earned it.
