Law Enforcement Officers Weekend

5 days ago

On Thursday, September 22nd, Police Officer (ret.) Mark Bressack of the NYPD and retired US Army Ranger succumbed to his battle with 9/11 cancer.

After retiring in 2018 and moving to Tennessee, Mark was diagnosed with cancer linked to his rescue and recovery efforts at Ground Zero. He went through years of unsuccessful treatment and was placed on hospice care just a few weeks ago. Knowing of the grim outcome, Mark and his wife flew into NY to be with family and friends. What they didn’t know, is Law Enforcement Officers Weekend had been made aware of the situation and planned a once in a lifetime private event for them.

Mark, his wife Joyce, family and friends were taken on an all-exclusive day trip throughout New York City, which included a boat tour of the New York Harbor, a final ride on a Harley (one of his favorite pastimes) at Fort Hamilton Army Base (where he also met the Commander) a private tour of the Empire State Building and ended the day with a delicious steak dinner at Royal 35 Steakhouse in Manhattan. Mark was also met throughout the day by his old partners from various commands and the PBA.

Just thirteen days later, Mark passed away. We certainly didn’t expect his passing to occur so quickly, but we’re thankful and honored to have made a lasting memory for his family. Keeping the stories and memories of these heroes whom sacrificed so much the days, weeks, months and years following September 11th, 2001, will forever be part of the mission of Law Enforcement Officers Weekend.

Our deepest condolences extend to Mark’s wife Joyce, his entire family, friends and colleagues. Rest easy, Officer. We’ve got the watch. ... See MoreSee Less
