To the Long Family: It has been many, many years since I last saw Marty but I have such wonderful memories of the blonde haired young man with a great big smile! Marty had a good heart and was dedicated to the City of Philadelphia as a Police Officer. I am so sad to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. The members of our CopNET family would like to thank Martin G. Long for his dedication and service to the citizens of Philadelphia. The passing of Marty will be broadcast to our 3,206 members shortly and we would like to extend our sincere condolences to his family. His absence from our ranks will be deeply missed by the remaining members of Philadelphia's Finest who were fortunate to have served with him during his police career. He will continue in our thoughts and prayers during our remaining days. "Until we meet again, may God Hold you in the palm of his hand. " . . .
Semper Fidelis.
