Oct. 17, 1930, Jack Horrall

Oct. 17, 1930: Jack Horrall, 4, is the police mascot.

Retired LAPD Officer Jack Horrall, the son of former Police Chief Clemence C.B. Horrall, died Monday at the age of 82.

The family says: Jack had a truly illustrious life.  He served in the Navy during WWII and after discharge he joined the Army Reserves.

He joined the LAPD in l947 and was assigned for 16 years to the
Organized Crime Intelligence Unit, retiring after 27 years of service. 
Jack then went to Sacramento, where he was part of the security force
for the attorney general and later appointed military liaison to
Gov. George Deukmejian, where he served for six years.  He left with the rank
of colonel.  He retired in 1989 to pursue fishing, golf, tennis, water
skiing, cross-country skiing and snow-mobiling.  He just received his
50-year Masonic membership award and served as president of the Shrine
Patrol in 1973.  He was accepted into the Jesters in 2002 and was
president of his class.
 
So, in view of this extraordinary life of accomplishment, please
raise your glass to the man who loved a good party at 5:13 pm and toast
Jack's successful and fulfilling life.  "Let's have one on the house."

There will be no services.
