I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad. I am blessed that I had the opportunity to love and respect him as well. Remember even in sadness, there are memories to comfort, and love to heal. When there are no words, there are still arms to embrace and shoulders to lean on for as long as theyre needed. As you look ahead, may these caring thoughts go with you, giving comfort and lending hope as you make this journey to a place of peace and healing.

So sad. I always liked Teddy. Knew him when he was with One Squad at West Detectives. Always a gentleman. Even though I hadn't seen him for years, whenever there was conversation about One Squad, Teddy always came to mind. Wish I could attend tomorrow, but due to this virus, I have to stay put. Please know I am with you in spirit and I will remember Teddy always. So sorry for your loss.

I join the Police force in 1966 and saw Teddy thru out our time on the force. So sorry to hear of his passing. My prayers are with the family. May Teddy rest in peace.
