View all 3 ReflectionsOfficer Morton's nephew was Rusty Staub, a great baseball player and even better person, who started the New York Police and Fire Widows' and Children's Benefit Fund. Rusty's brother, Chuck, says it was done to honor their uncle. So Officer Morton, you live on in a very important way.
