In memoriam
Westland police honor
exceptional officers
Academy enrollments accepted
Three members of the
Westland Police Department
were awarded honors during a
presentation recognizing their
exemplarywork recently.
Officer James Compton was
named as Officer of the Year
while Ofc. Brandon Paris and
dispatcher Dina Benyo were
each chosen for the Chief's
DistinguishedServiceAward.
Compton has been with the
Westland department for four
years, after beginning his law
enforcement career with Detroit.
He was recognized for his
involvement with the Police
Explorers, where he serves as an
advisor to youth and his work as
a field training officer, helping
recent hires in the department
learnprocedures.
Westland Police Chief Jeff
Jedrusik noted that Compton
was responsible for 15 guns
being taken off the city streets
and that he was involved in sev-
eral cased that also involved
large quantities of drugs.
Jedrusik said that Compton had
consistently been in the top 25
percent of number of arrests
made annually.
Deputy
Chief
Randy
Thivierge announced the award
to Benyo, who has been a dis-
patcher with the Westland police
for more than 23 years. She was
recognized for her efforts to help
improve dispatch operations,
officials said. Benyo also handles
many of the departmental
administrative duties as a volun-
teer, Thivierge said. He called
her a "leader among her peers"
and said that she "consistently
strives to better the police
department, exemplifies what it
is to be a great dispatcher. She's
always looking for better ways to
do the job."
Paris' work with the first
Police Youth Academy was also
honored with a Distinguished
Service Award. The academy is a
week-long summer program for
high school students which intro-
duces them to police work. The
academy was Paris' idea, noted
Westland Deputy Chief Brian
Miller.
Miller praised Paris' initiative
and the success of the program
under his direction.

during the ceremony including
Ron Buckley, Mark Cholak,
Rodney Donald, Chaim Kozak,
Brandon Pettit, Kevin Cullum,
Kevin Yudt, Kris Landis and
John Gatti who were presented
with Lifesaving awards for their
work.

Milton L. Mack Sr., a pillar of
the Wayne community, died June
20, 2017 following a long illness.
Mr. Mack was honored with
the Patrick J. Norton Community

tributions to the City of Wayne in
2001.
He was born in Toronto,
Ontario, on July 2, 1929, the son
of Marie Rose LaPrise and
MiltonArthurMack.
A kind and generous husband
and father, he married his high
school sweetheart, Virgie, in
1948, at St. Mary's Catholic
Church in Wayne. He started
working for E & L Transport in
1949 andworked his way up from
clerk to head accountant and
office manager, his title when he
retired in 2001.
While working at E & L, he
attended classes at night to attain
his AssociatesDegree in account-
ing at Henry Ford Community
College.
In addition to his wife, Mr.
Mack is survived by four chil-
dren, Milton Jr., Robert, Theresa
and Marie; four grandchildren,
and 19 great-grandchildren.
Mr. Mack served on theWayne
Zoning Board of Appeals and the
Wayne Building Authority. He
also served as president of the

Among his special interests
were playing the guitar, banjo
and ukulele, and he loved to
work on cars. Those visiting his

oil in their vehicle checked by
Mr. Mack, his family recalled.
On the anniversary of his
death, he is greatly missed and
remembered by his family and
many friends.
