Very sad to hear of the passing of your father. When I was a youngster my police father, Frank Reynolds, was your father's partner in Accident Investigation. I remember your dad coming to our house, always making us laugh, and we gave him a nickname, Huckleberry Hound. Heavens knows why but your dad always got a laugh out of it! Good memories and a very good man!
