"Officer Sorffly Davius was a hero in every sense of the word, proudly serving both New York City as a member of the NYPD for 11 years and the United States as a Major in the U.S. Army National Guard. While he is no longer with us physically, his legacy of dedication to his family, his borough, his city and his country will live on eternally."
"My thoughts are with the entire Davius family, his NYPD colleagues and every member of our armed forces currently in danger abroad. Let us never forget the selflessness and sacrifice of our men and women in uniform like Officer Davius."
Major Sorffly Davius, 46, a married father of six from Cambria Heights, died in Kuwait on March 6 while serving with the New York Army National Guard's 42nd Infantry Division at Camp Buehring.
