I met Cecil when I gave a Street Crimes class in Memphis years ago. He was kind enough to lead me to a Country Western Store that was miles from the training site on his own time, to make sure I was able to get a belt buckle my young daughter wanted. He was as classy as they come. I just heard of his passing and wish to offer my sincere condolences to his beautiful family. -Retired Det. Frank Goff. Chgo. P.D.
