P.O. James Leahy
Fallen at the World Trade Center
Police Officer James Leahy, 38, was appointed to the NYPD on January 13, 1992, and began his career on patrol in the 6 Precinct where he remained for his entire career. Although he was a high school football player and attended Walsh College in Ohio, his childhood ambition was to become a professional wrestler. The oldest of five children, PO Leahy became a surrogate dad to his four siblings when their father Arthur, a Parks Department employee, was killed in the line of duty during a robbery in 1975. He is survived by his wife Marcella: children Danny, James Jr., and John; mother Jeanette; sisters Danielle, Denise and Michele; and brother Arthur. |
