Dear John: It been nearly 19 years since the car accident that took your life. I will always treasury the times we spent together as neighbors and comparing our Police and Fire stories for we both were Public Safety AKA: Guns&Hoses Officers with different departments. A few years later after your death, I ran into the infamous Ted Nugent at DTW and we talked at great length about what a kind-hearted time donating person you were for kids. In case you didn't know John Ted sent some really nice flowers to your funeral and misses you too. John. I truly miss our time Up North in Gaylord, Michigan. Whether it was bonfire time in my driveway with or me riding shotgun in your Ostego County Sheriff Department police car patrolling and catching up on good times, I will always miss you and our fellowship. John, I know you know this but your Kids are wonderful grown adults and are working to make this world a better place.You'd be so proud. Til we meet again my Friend..CHEERS!

"SCRAPPY" it has been over 18 years since you were taken from us and everyday I know you are with me at DTW. I drive by your accident site once or even twice a workday and I always render a salute to you and your family. Somedays there are days that I really want to quit but Thank You, you give me the strengthen to drive on and serve. We weren't the bestest of friend's for short time I knew you but I admired how you served the public, managed co-workers, and how you lived your life. Rest In Peace Scrappy ...I'll never forget you and for all the good you stood for....Semper Fidelis! Sincerely, K-9 CPL. Fortney, Robert #48 Detroit Metro Airport Police

EOW. O2-02-1985 It was a pleasure to have you as my brother, and a pleasure to work along side of you as we tried to make a difference for the good! Since you have been taken from us a day doesn’t go by that I don’t think of you! It’s been 38 years that you have been gone, and this year would have been your 60th birthday, May 26, another milestone we don’t get to celebrate!
