Morris...it's hard to believe that you were assigned to us soon after Tommy past away. It was a pleasure serving with a man so energetic and so dedicated to his job as a Prince e George's County police officer. It was even more of a gift to be able to sound off on a near perfect 3-volly at your homegoing while crying at the same time...
I love you Morris....you are truly one of my heroes!

I attended your funeral, and heard over and over what a bright, energetic and squared away Officer you were. The real tragedy is that the benefit of your dedication for your chosen profession was cut short. Your attention to detail in the way you wore your uniform with pride and distinction, tell me you were a throw back to old school policing in Prince George's County. I have heard from other Officers that knew you that you had the gift and drive of the kind of Police Officer we all hope to be. Your agency and profession are proud to count you among their ranks.

His Judgment Day:
The officer stood and faced his God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shinning, Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now, Officer, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek To my church have you been true?"
The officer squared his shoulder and said, "No, Lord, I guess I aint, Because those of us who carry badges can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was rough, And sometimes I've been violent Because the streets are tough.
But I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep.. Though I worked a lot of overtime, when the bills got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept an unmanly tear.
I know I don't deserve a place among the people here. They never wanted me around except to calm their fear.
If you've a place for me here, Lord, it needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't...I'll understand.
There was silence all around the throne, where the saints often trod. As the officer waited quietly for the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, Officer. You've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on heaven's streets, You've done your time in hell"
