| I met Larry and his partner Noel years ago at a Bronx Supervisor's meeting at Pbbx/Afs, Lehman College(the catacombs, for those who recall!). And I was immediately impressed with the professionalism and dedication to their house and the job. They took their lives in their hands, literally, every time they went to work. But work they did, and were senselessly slaughtered for it. They both deserved better. But Faithful they were, unto the end. And they died, Protecting Their City. May God keep them right where He keeps all fallen cops; in His Heart. Where they belong. | ||||
