Commissioner of Police Michael DeSilva - On behalf of the officers and staff of The Bermuda Police Service I extend sincere condolences to the family of former Detective Inspector Milton Marsh. I had the pleasure to meet Inspector Marsh on his 102nd birthday in February this year as well as some members of his family. I noted how sharp his memory was of his policing career and it was interesting to hear him relate his experiences. He commented that police officers today have it tougher than he did. But when he told me he used to carry prisoners to the police station slung over his shoulder, I remarked how grateful I was that times had changed. Our thoughts and prayers are with Inspector Marsh’s family at this sad time. We hope that they are comforted by our gratitude for the significant contribution to Bermuda’s safety made by Inspector Marsh during his watch.
