"A True Hero and Friend"

There are many tributes and condolences pages on the web to Officer Thomas Devlin, but when I found this letter by Sgt Joe Desmond to The Heights, you could feel the sense of loss as only a friend and colleague could write.

Sgt Desmond writes, "...please remember Tom, his family, friends, and colleagues in your thoughts and prayers. Also remember, the men and women of the BCPD... whose selfless devotion to duty insure and protect the little things in life that we all take for granted.

There is a memorial to Officer Devlin at the Boston College Police Department and a new memorial will be incorporated to the BCPD offices when they are relocated.
