RECOGNIZING BUCKINGHAM TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT LIEUTENANT WILLIAM
MOFFETT'S 35 YEARS OF SERVICE
______
HON. BRIAN K. FITZPATRICK
of pennsylvania
in the house of representatives
Friday, August 15, 2025
Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize an exceptional
individual from my district, Lieutenant William Moffett of the
Buckingham Township Police Department. Today, I proudly commend him on
his well-earned retirement, following decades of committed service to
the people of Bucks County.
Lieutenant Moffett's distinguished career in public service began in
1981, when he served as an EMT with the Bucks County Rescue Squad and
Bensalem Rescue Squad. Two years later, he joined the Bucks County
Department of Communications as a Police, Fire, and EMS dispatcher,
demonstrating his deep commitment to public safety.
In 1987, Lieutenant Moffett transitioned to a career in law
enforcement as a Deputy Sheriff with the Bucks County's Sheriff's
Department. Then, in 1990, he joined the Buckingham Township Police
Department, where he would serve for the next 35 years.
He began his service as an Officer and quickly distinguished himself
through exceptional dedication and leadership. Throughout his tenure,
he earned multiple promotions, rising through the ranks of Officer,
Corporal, Sergeant, and ultimately Lieutenant. In each role, Lieutenant
Moffett brought integrity and professionalism.
Notably, Lieutenant Moffett played a major role in implementing a new
record management system, obtaining body-worn and in-car dash cameras,
and acquiring taser devices for the department. His efforts helped to
modernize the force and enhance public safety.
Beyond these contributions, he has shared his vast experiences and
leadership abilities with generations of the department's officers.
Above all, Lieutenant Moffett's pride in serving the residents of Bucks
County was always evident--so much so that this legacy continues, with
all three of his sons now serving as police officers in communities
across the county.
After a long and honorable career in law enforcement, Lieutenant
Moffett looks forward to a well-deserved retirement.
Mr. Speaker, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to Lieutenant
William Moffett on his retirement and thank him for 44 years of
distinguished service to the citizens of Bucks County. His leadership
and dedication will leave a lasting mark on the community he so
faithfully served.
