Report: Yankees will pay for education of slain NYPD officer's children

George Steinbrenner's Silver Shield Foundation will pay for the education of the children of murdered NYPD officer Rafael Ramos, according to the New York Daily News.

Ramos and fellow officer Wenjian Liu were tragically killed by a cold-blooded gunman while on duty in Brooklyn on Saturday. Ramos has two sons:  a 13-year-old, and another who is in college. Liu was married, but does not have children.

The late New York Yankees owner started the foundation 32 years ago, which has now paid for the education of over 800 children of fallen servicemen and women.
