Reflections:
Mel and I were partners from 1974-1976 working undercover narcotics primarily in the inner city. Mel was a very conscientious and dedicated detective who had two dear children that he admired very much. Mel is fondly remembered frequently. Thanks for the memories Mel. You have not been forgotten.

Although I never got a chance to meet my Uncle I learned what an amazing person he was through the stories my father tells me. It has been 35 years today and I know a day doesn't go by that my Dad doesn't think about him. Never Forget.
