I am terribly saddened at the death of my friend Danny Groth. Dan was a dear friend for 35 years who had my utmost respect. He was a Sgt.of mine as a young policeman in the 18th District. He took me under his protective wing. Dan was a man of courage and integrity and was very instrumental in my life. He never forgot his friends. I shall never forget him. My prayers are with him and his family. Al Scarnavack, former Chicago Police Officer and Assistant States Attorney.
