WP:NOTMEMORIAL seems lurking in these two articles. Nothing shows notability for these two officers besides being killed in the Brinks' robbery. That alone is not a reason to have articles on them being that we do not have articles on every single cop killed in the line of duty nor do we have an article on the third person killed in this robbery. Neither article contains much information that does not already exist in the robbery article. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 01:39, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article reads very much like a memorial and an obituary. Concrete notability is certainly not established , so delete. Ernestchuajiasheng (talk) 11:22, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Brink's robbery (1981). Subjects are not independently notable of the CRIME, however they are a plausible search term (as evidenced by a BEFORE for their names).Icewhiz (talk) 13:45, 21 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
