Township Police Lt. Darrin Russo took his final walkout from police headquarters June 24 in a ceremony that included a pipes and drum corps, honor guard and presentation of a flag flown in his honor over the U.S. Capitol.

Russo, 52, retires at the end of June with more than 30 years on the force as a patrolman, detective and supervisor. Commemoration of his retirement was an all-day affair, with a breakfast gathering in the morning at The Imperia on Easton Avenue and the final walkout early in the afternoon.
