Chief Posavetz was a great chief and even better human being. He truly lived the servant leader model and, although long in tenure and greatly respected, displayed a humility that made him approachable to all. He was honest, forthright and yet considerate.
I’m blessed to have known him.

A police officer should be remembered not by how he died, but how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Clinton Township Police Department. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother!
