Our sincere sympathies on your loss. Dick was our dad's beat partner in Milwaukee for a number of years, and Dad shared many stories with us of their adventures and exploits as M.P.D. officers. Dad described Dick as a "cop's cop", and was proud to have served with him. Dad's been gone 18 years now, but perhaps he and Dick are reunited, and sharing old stories. Our prayers are with your family. Dave, Dan and Cathy (Vierck) Carlson, the children of Jim Carlson.
