Huge Hat Tip to Second City Cop - click my post title.
Police Officer John C. Knight
Chicago, IL Police Department
Age: 38, Tour Of Duty: 10 Yrs. Badge#: 5119
E.O.W. 9 January 1999
Cause Of Death: Gunfire
The 10 year anniversary of the untimely death of Officer John Knight is coming up Friday, January 9th. We are having a get together at the Stadium Club, 116th and Western, where all of John's friends can get together, enjoy some good food, and trade your favorite stories of working with him. Food is being donated by the bar owner, Danny Cullinan, and we are going with a "Feed the Kitty" system for paying for the refreshments (everyone drops $20 in the bucket by the bar, and the bartenders pull from there to pay for refreshments. If money runs out, the hat gets passed around for an extra $5- 10 to cover more refreshments and/or tips for the bartenders).
Count on a very good time, and please be kind to the people working there. They are always FANTASTIC to us.
Please contact Sgt Dawn Melchert (022 Tact) at 773-218-5066 to RSVP. We need to give the Stadium Club a good headcount to know how much food to prepare.
