I'LL MISS U IN THE MORNING WHEN I WILL BE COMING ON. YOU MADE OUR DB SQUAD EASIER IN THE MORNING FOR THE ARRESTS YOU AND YOUR SQUAD MADE AT NIGHT. YOU WERE MY HERO, I LOVED YOU LIKE MY BROTHER, ALL THE WEBERS LOVED YOU. I KNOW YOUR LAUGHTING AT ME WHEN THE TEARS ARE FLOWING RIGHT NOW. WE WILL MEET AGAIN AT THOSE GATES.

To the family, friends and Newark Police Department you are all in my prayers. There's not much anyone can say that will help, the only thing that kept coming to me during our nightmare was the fact that Clint loved being an Officer and would not have traded places with anyone, I bet Sergeant Popolizio was the same way. You will miss him everyday, but we will never forget.

This is my shield, I bear it before me into battle, but it is not mine alone. It protects my brother on my left. It protects my city. I will never let my brother out of it's shadow nor my city out of it's shelder. I will die with my shield before me facing the enemy. Steven Pressman-Gates of Fire.
Remember those who have gone before us, because no one dies unless they are forgotten. Sarge, you did not lose your life, you gave it in service to the citizens of Newark and the state of New Jersey. A TRUE HERO

Hard to believe things like this could happen,and suddenly, it happens. T. Pop was a role model for so many and one person you didn't have to worry about showing up when you needed help out there. He was on his way! God Bless the family and friends, we will miss him.
