NGK,have Mike send the knife to Charles Marlowe,I'll Email you his address I'm gonna have Ed T send the handle material to him to if anyone needs to be reimbursed for shipping let me know, some people have offered $donations to help. I still could use someone to etch or do some simple engraving A badge # and Maybe PAPD or a badge image I really would like to see something on the knife if possible commemorating Jim. I,m sorry if I'm a little slow, I've never tried to coordinate something like this before, and being on call for work this week hasn't helped much.
 
Got your e-mail knife should go out wed. Is the below pic a accurate pic of the port authority badge?

NGK I'll let you know about the Badge later today, and to everyone thanks for all your help so far.
 
NGK, that badge is an officers badge, Jim was a Chief, his fiance is comming up my way to see her brother who lives a couple of miles from me, she carries a replica of his badge with her so I'll get a picture and email it to you by the weekend. Her brother says that he thinks the badge is the same just gold instead of silver, and no badge # just the words Chief.
I'm amazed,(although I shouldn't be) at how this has snowballed, the knife community is filled with great people and I can't thank you all enough.
 
I will donate $10 to the knife maker, $10 to NGK-Webmaster whos doing the wood work. Sorry, its all I have right now. NGK-Webmaster, send me an E-mail with a mailing address.

badge

Remember, in NY or NJ a Fireman wears a badge and a Police Officer wears a sheild. When George Bush showed George Hoard's shield he made sure to say it correctly. Its is a point of honor. That shield covers adn protects an officer's heart. By the way, I work for the City of NY and see Jim's name everyday outside the chapel on Broadway. He and his fellow officers are not forgotten as long as I walk this earth. Good luck and God Bless.
 
The Buck 110 ships to Charles Marlowe today (Tuesday) from New Graham.

Thanks Michael, NGK is working on the plaque, when this all comes together I'll post pics of all your generosity, and of Mary recieving the plaque. I'll make sure she knows of everyones thoughts, and generosity.

You folks are all, without a doubt the finest, examples of this community. :)
 
Update on the scale material. UPS tracking has it as in transit to me with a scheduled delivery of tomorrow. I will send them USPS once I receive them. Will be much faster I think.

I have been following this post for awhile and I gotta say that I am proud and honored to be in the company of so many great people. What you are doing is to be commended.

As some of you know I lost a good friend on 9-11. His name is John Skala. He too was a Port Authority police officer and a Passaic, NJ paramedic. I feel that the project you have set upon is not only an honor to Chief Romito but to all of the PAPD officers that lost their lives trying to save others. I am proud of you all.
 
I had to leave town for a few days unexpectedly. I will get the handle material to you via the fastest means possible.

Mr. Marlowe, I will email you NGK's Address, as he is making the plaque, If you have a digital camera could you post a few pics when your done? If not when it finally arrives here I'll take plenty of pics of everything, including presenting it to Jim's fiance.

I was going to kick this up to the top again tonight, but C. Marlowe ya did it for me, thanks.

I'll be away from my computer the week of 8-24-02 till 9-1-02 for a long needed vacation with my wife and daughter, so if your involved and I don't respond to your email, it's cause I'm not home, but I promise to answer all before the end of Labor Day weekend.

Have a Safe and Happy Holiday,

The Mad Hungarians
