Dear Members of the Service,
On May 27, 2005 at 0200 hours, P.O. Thomas Mitchell, 101 Precinct
was involved in an RMP accident that left him “paralyzed
from the neck down”. He and his partner were responding
to a robbery in progress when the accident occurred at Rockaway
Turnpike and Pearl Street.
Officer Mitchell, 31 year old, is an 8-year veteran of the NYPD.
He is married and the father of an eight-month-old baby girl.
Currently Tom is going through extensive therapy at the Kessler
Rehabilitation Institute in New Jersey.
We are attempting to raise money to assist Tom and his family
with many of the unforeseen expenses that will be incurred including
extensive renovations to his house to meet his handicapped needs
and the purchase of a converted van, once he comes home sometime
in “2006”.
Please ask your members, supervisors, detectives, friends and
relatives to purchase these vacation raffle tickets. The drawing
will be held on Oct 21, 2005 at the 101 Pct.
Checks should be made payable to PO Thomas Mitchell Fund, c/o
NYC PBA, 40 Fulton Street, 17th floor, New York, NY 10038, Attn:
George Reynolds or Tony Keller.
