A retired Milford Police Sergeant that served the community for many years.
After his 9 month fight with cancer and funeral expenses, the family does not have the funds at this time to purchase a headstone. It would take some time for us to eventually save up the funds, so rather then leaving him without a memorial for now, I would like to dignify his memory and try to get him a headstone as soon as possible., according to the website gofundme.com.
