You will always be my 180th classmate and forever my brother. To the family and friends of Joe, we will pray for you and the NYSP family will always be here in your time of need.

"The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great,
and he never lets the gulity go unpunished.
He displays his power in the whirlwind and the storm.
The billowing clouds are the dust beneath his feet."
Nahum 1:2

For those not from upstate NY, the weather surrounding this unfortunate occurrence is evident that God IS at work here. To the NYSP brotherhood, we pray for swift vengeance and prompt execution of the evil force that plagues your family. To the family and friends of Trooper Longobardo, rest assured that Joe has earned his place in God's Kingdom, for no service in the Army of the Living God ever goes unrewarded. Rest in peace our brother, we'll take care of it from here.
