I would like to thank Renee Maher for writing a letter to the editor reminding the community of the ultimate sacrifice her late husband, Officer Patrick Maher, made while serving the community as a Federal Way police officer 10 years ago.

I was one of the thousands who paid tribute to Officer Maher at that time, and I still think of the Maher family often. I know I am one of many grateful citizens in Federal Way who have not, and will not, forget.
