Patrolman Jerry Eberhard
|
I would also like to acknowledge Patrolman Jeremiah
(Jerry) Eberhardt.
Patrolman Jerry Eberhardt was appointed to the
Buffalo Police Department May 1, 1929 and spent most of his
thirty-seven year carrier assigned to the Accident Investigation
Division.
Jerry maintained throughout his carrier many
extremely detailed scrapbooks preserving pictures, newspaper
clippings and mementos relative to the Buffalo Police Department.
I
was very fortunate to have had access to the many fascinating and
informative journals and have posted much of the articles on this
web page.
Patrolman Jerry Eberhardt retired from the
Department on July 31, 1965 and passed away four years later on
September 28, 1969 at the age of seventy-one
My sincere thanks,
|
