I grew up and played soccer with him. I looked up to him and considered him a friend. I was honored to be his friend. He treated everyone with respect and his smile was unforgetable. He is still greatly missed and since I have been an Police Officer his loss hits closer to home.

Jeff now has overwatch over all of us that are continuing the fight.

I hope that guy that was then a 17 year old punk is enjoying his lifetime term and suffers. RIP Moritz

I was looking around here admiring all of our brave Officers who were unfortunately killed in the line of duty, and I came across this page. You will definetly be missed Jeff by all who knew you and your son is doing very well in his AFJROTC in his school. He is very involved and is a great leader, and I am very proud to be in his unit. He joined late and still went way further in the ranks than people who have been there for years.

To all of you who have kept Jeff, his sons, and I in your thoughts and prayers.... I thank you!!!

Holden our oldest son, 15, is active in JROTC and just soloed his first flight. He has aspirations of becoming a pilot and joining the Air Force. I am so proud of him!

Gavin, who is now 12, is coming into his own and discovering all that life has to offer. Even though he never knew his father here on Earth, he is exactly like Jeff. He walks, talks, and gestures just like him. His interests also follow that of Jeff's, especially hunting :-) He has told anyone who asks, since he was 7, that he wants to be a police officer. I know that he will pursue that career and make a positive impact on the community where he serves. He is my mini Moose... I am truly blessed.

Your death left us with pain and daydreams of a life lived without your loss. Now that your father has passed, we long for an afterlife that has the two of you smiling together again - sharing stories of your sons. We miss you and love you.

As an assignment I must determine in my own opinion rather or not the person who shot and killed Mr. Moritz was truly insane and if he deserves the right to leave prison for a mental hospital. I of course was not capable of reading the entire case only briefs to bare what took place. In my opinion when Clark fled the scene he instantly and at that point knew with out a doubt he had done something WRONG. Therefore, he knew at the time he had knowingly committed a crime and deserves to stay in prison, in my own opinion for my assignment.

Mrs. Moritz, I am a spouse of a Soldier so I can certainly understand what you might have gone trough on a daily bases. My husband has been deployed three times in our seven year marriage. Everyday I woke up without him, I wondered rather or not I would get a knock on the door by the team in the black government car. That concern lasted an entire year while he was gone. I commend you and your family for supporting what your husband felt he wanted to do in his heart, protect and serve. God bless you all!

Thinking of you on this 11 year anniversary since you were taken from us. It is wonderful to see your sons growing up to be fine young men that you would be so proud of. Stacey is a wonderful Mother to the boys. It seems so strange to write these things on this web site but in some manner it helps many of us to articulate how much we cared for you and miss you so much. Until we meet again. JD

Hey You, I have been thinking of you often lately, you just keeping popping into my thoughts. So many fond memories, so many good times. I often wonder what it would be like today, if you were still with us. I guess God had another plan that we will never understand. I still have so many questions. I am sure you would be happy with knowing that you made a difference in many peoples lives, one of the many things that make me smile. I truly can't believe it has been 10 years. Rest in Peace, my friend. Know that you are still making a difference in peoples lives, especially mine!

Jeff- It is still hard to believe that you are gone. John and I used to say that it seemed like you were on vacation and that the next time we went to Flagstaff we would see you. We talk about you often. I have many great memories of fun and good times with you when I was your RA in Sechrist Hall at NAU, and the many wonderful family holidays we had together. Whenever your Mom, Dad, John, Eric, Natasha and I are all in Telluride skiing I always wish that you were with us. You were a great man and I miss you.

Officer Moritz,

I never knew you but I remember hearing of your death on the news. I pass through Flagstaff a few times a year to go hunting and I always think of you. God speed, thank you for your dedication and sacrifice.

Jeff I was very, very sad when I learned of your death, soon after it happened. I explained it to my young sons, and for months afterward, if I ever seemed sad to them they would ask "is daddy sad because his friend police died?" Which actually made me smile and remember how AMAZINGLY lucky I am that I get to see the grow up, and man Jeff, you don't get to see that for your kids. Damn Jeff, I'm really sorry man. I love being a dad, and because I knew your dad and brother John (who are both just great guys), I'm sure you would have loved seeing your children grow and would have been a great example to them.

I remember that time in the hot tub at night at the Athletic club when you, me, and Marti (wasn't that her name?) were talking about what teenage boys and girls ALWAYS seem to be talking about. I asked Marti to duck her head under the water so I could tell you something private without her hearing. She agreed and ducked her head under. You started laughing and told me, regarding her, that... well, I remember what you said. And how you were laughing when you said it. That's a great memory.

Your children would have LOVED getting to know you better. Thank you for the memories, Jeff. I'm very sorry that happened to you.
