Even though it's been many years, you are still loved & missed as if you left us only yesterday. Many family events make your absence almost unbearable.
You are my hero, my friend, my confidant and my dearly loved brother. I will always think of you as my baby brother. Love you forever & always

Officer Heidelberger, today marks the 24th year since your senseless death. Part of me believes that the man who killed you felt he was doing the right thing (at first) in his twisted way, but to shoot you and the other man in the head only shows that he was not simply a complete moron, but a dangerous lunatic. I pray to GOD he never sees the light of freedom as long as he lives.

You did your best to help others and you did it in the name of the NYC Housing Police, an agency that was destroyed in the name of fiscal responsibility. Your agency is simply a part of history and you are a part of the history of the New York City Housing Authority Police and a lost Brother.

God Bless and may your eternal rest be ever peaceful.

The man I remember from my childhood as "Whipper". A very close friend of my fathers that I will never forget. Always with a smile that could brighten anyone's day. Hope you and my pop have had a cold one on the other side. Thank you for your service, you were a true hero.

Today is the anniversary of the most horrible day of my life. On July 18, 1992 the world needlessly lost a wonderful son, brother, uncle, nephew. You are the most special, caring, loyal, funny and loving person. I was blessed to have had the honor to call you my brother. You will always be missed. Mom is with you now so give her a hug from me. Love you forever.

I remember that morning like it was yesterday July 18, 1992.Our lives were changed forever and you are missed every day. You left behind 3 nephews who you would be so proud of and I'm sure your living in the same home with them left a positive image of what a true hero is. Someone like you who would always put others first and gave his life doing just that. Now you are with Mom, Dad, Billy, Georgie, Johnny & Laura. And, my dear brother, someday we will be together again. Until then, know that I love you forever.

Friend,
July 17, 1992 we were out planning our upcoming vacation. This night you were taken from us by a brutal excuse of a man. You were simply helping a friend as you would always do. I often ask myself if I could have done something differently to change the outcome of that horrific night , there is just no answer to the question.Tomorrow I will be visiting you at the cemetery and I wanted to take time now to reflect on our friendship, which I will cherish forever. 20 years is a long time and you would think the pain would lessen, but it just doesn't.
I am happy to report that you have left behind a great bunch of nieces and nephews who adored and worshiped you....rightfully so .... they (all but 1) have turned into fine young adults. I know they all try to mirror their lives after yours. Even those who never had the chance to meet you, know of you and the pleasure you brought to our lives.
Thank You for being my best friend, I will miss you forever.

Paul,
20 years this month you were taken from all of us that loved you and speaking of you still brings smiles and tears to our eyes.
Our three boys know you as "Uncle Paul", though they never had the chance to meet you. They have heard all about you, what a great friend you were, the great times we had and believe you have been their guardian angel from heaven. We miss you! Always in our hearts.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 18th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. Rest In Peace.

I pray for solace for all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.

Hey Paul,

It has been a while since I last thought about you. Sorry. We were good friends in Our Lady of Lourdes and then at St. Francis Prep. Although we started hanging with different crowds during high school (mine a bit seedier than yours), we still had lunch together nearly everyday. I was visiting the Prep website earlier and I read that another friend of ours, Sean McKeon, passed away. A few weeks after graduating from high school, Sean was involved in a horrible car crash and lost use of his legs and partial loss of his arms. You, Sean and I really enjoyed each other's company for a while. Time goes by so fast and you sometimes forget to realize how much people mean to you until they are gone. You were such a good guy - such a straight shooter and never afraid to speak your mind. I have awesome memories of our Queens Village years; thank you. I'm not sure what happens to us after we pass, but I would hope that both you and Sean are somewhere good. You were a rare breed on this planet and I'm glad to have known you. Take care.
