Our kindest wishes to yourself for being so friendly to us during our time at the, "Bend". Very sincerely yours, John & Mary Neave. Dear Mr. Neave:- It. has been brought to my attention that you were of assistance to the Edmonton Police Department on the 6th November, 1980. I understand that you were in a store when a male ran past you and down a hallway. You became suspicious and immediately gave chase and called out for someone to stop him. Another person heard your call for assistance and managed to stop this suspect who was held until police arrived. This accused was arrested and charged with break & enter, assault and possession of an offensive weapon. Had it not been for your alert action, this case .may not have been brought to a successful conclusion so readily. COiT1Pu FiEPI SERVICES INC. Do you know what we do?
