“For Jamie”

Updated 06/28/25

It is with a heavy heart that I share the devastating news of the passing of our beloved friend and fellow member, Detective Jamie Atkinson. Jamie was the epitome of selflessness, always putting the well-being of others before his own.

Jamie was a true fighter, quietly battling an aggressive cancer diagnosis with incredible strength and grace for so long, never once making it a focal point or seeking sympathy. Even as the disease took its toll, he remained steadfast, continuing to inspire us with his resilience and unwavering commitment to others. His courage in the face of such a relentless fight will forever be a testament to the extraordinary man he was.
Despite his long battle, he poured his heart into charities, community organizations, volunteer departments, and our very own running club. His dedication knew no bounds, and his impact on us all was profound. 

As president of the MTAPD RC, I owe so much to Jamie’s guidance, mentorship, and cherished friendship. He took me under his wing, sharing his wisdom, passion for helping others, and love for the thin blue line. His mission was to leave our profession and community better than he found it, and he succeeded in ways we’ll forever strive to emulate. Jamie was the one we could always count on, and his absence leaves an unfillable void.

On behalf of our entire club, we extend our deepest condolences to Jamie’s family, friends, and all who were blessed to have crossed paths with him. We are committed to honoring his legacy, especially through the Tunnel to Towers Foundation Annual NYC 5K Walk & Run—an event he cherished. It was just last week I was on the phone with him coordinating and gathering the details for this year’s event. It’s going to be different now though. 

Nevertheless, this year, with the assistance from all of you, we will make sure that our club and our department run in his memory, ensuring the biggest and best turnout yet to celebrate his incredible life.

Rest easy, Jamie. We’ll take it from here.

With gratitude and love,
Anthony Camerada
MTAPD Running Club - President
