To the Editor:

The Ketchum family would like to express their sincere gratitude to the Town of Newtown, the New-town Police Department and the Newtown Fire Department for the memorials conducted on behalf of Stephen Ketchum.

The outpourings of sympathy and public honors for Officer Ketchum have been an immeasurable com-fort to the family at this very sad time.

Thank you,

Tanya Ketchum

for the Ketchum family
