Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

It has been over 17 years since that fateful day in Queens. So many of the events of that day and the week following live in my memory most painful. My heart goes out to your family and my thoughts of you have a special place in my memories and heart. Rich had a unique sense of humor that was a pleasure to be around. You are in my thoughts forever...

Hello Rich - May you Rest In Peace, you went before your time, small world, I stumbled across this website, read the reflection written by an active PO and learned you worked with a friend from the 9th Pct. I can remember your smile always, I can also remember the card games we had in OCCB.

I remember the day you and Keith were killed. I was only 16 years old. My father, Dennis Harrington, served by your side in the Queen's DA Squad. That week was horrible for him. My sister, a Suffolk County police officer, carries Keith's badge holder. He gave it to my dad before he died. I never met you or Keith, but I think of you both often. God Bless you Richie.
