Jay- We went to a Memorial service today where they recognized you and your parents were given a really nice plaque. It was funny because as they introduced us they called me your wife. I know that you were probably laughing at us, as I know that you are with us here. We miss you alot, and always think about you.
Love always!

To Mrs. Phyllis Loya

You are a magnificent person... Words alone can't explain how it feels to lose someone you love. Not taking any thing away from my loss, but I can't even begin to imagine what it must feel like to lose a child. I am a mother of three and my husband is a police officer and I can't imagine how life would be without them in it. I would personally like to thank and salute you for the kindness you show to the many family and friends of other fallen officers by leaving words of encouragement on their loved ones reflections. It's hard for me to visit this site but it's even harder not to visit it. It saddens me to see how often we are losing our HEROES.

Mrs. Loya I don't know you but I hope someday I might get a chance to just shake your hand. Your son is very proud of you right now and he's smiling down on you from heaven saying, "That's my mom". I know he was a wonderful person by reading all of his reflections and I can see where he got it from by reading all of the kind words you leave to others. You and your family will forever be in my prayers.

Officer Jeremy Chambers, Rest in peace and may God always watch over your family and friends and give them some peace until you all are together again. Thanks for a job well done!!

Jay on your birthday we all met out at the cemetary it was nice that they got the marker on. It seems so surreal looking at that. I can't believe that my baby brother is no longer here with us. I know in my heart you are still here with us in spirit. I still remember when you said your first word as a baby. I can't believe you have been taken away from us. Nico is doing really well, she has put on a few pounds but I know she misses you. We got her and Eyck together last week. They had fun playing. I miss you so much. Love ya Denise

Hey Jeremy

Thursday will be six months. I have been by to visit with you many times, but now I hear that your marker is up. I will be by to see you again soon. I am in Freeburg now as the pastor of a larger parish. I miss all the gang at the Cahokia PD - but I keep in touch with them and they know that if they need anything that I am just a few miles away.

My kids at the school wear the ever popular wristbands. They quickly noticed that I wear a black one all the time. They asked me about it since they have never seen a black one before. I show it to them and they ask me about the name that appears on it. I tell them all about you - the kind of person you are...the fact that you are my friend...and that you lost your life in the line of duty.

Each time I preside at a funeral of someone young who lost their life in an accident, my thoughts turn to you and that ever difficult memory. I know that you are there with me because after the service I hear your voice in my head saying, "you did a great job, Father."

All of this has become a little easier for me, but I know that for your family the fact that you are no longer here with us is still so very difficult. I pray each day that they are able to cope a little better today than yesterday. Continue to watch over your birth family, police department family and fire department family from heaven and I will watch after them here on earth.

Rest well, my friend.

Hi Jeremy and Happy Birthday. Me and Chris went to your grave today and saw your grave marker. It looks great. As I stood there I could see your funeral all over again, all of the cars and people. I could see Father Mark standing there and then your last call. Its been six months and still it doesn't seem real, I guess it never will. Everytime I see your picture I think you are going to come through the door. I miss you being here and can't wait to see you again. Love you brother.

Jeremy...Happy 27th Birthday! I can't believe it's been 6 months since you were taken from us. I can still remeber getting the phone call to come to the hospital. I can remember so clearly but at the same time it feels like it's been forever. We all miss and love you so much. We will be out to see you grave marker today. We seen a picture of it and it's absolutely amazing. Please watch over all these guys and your wonderful family. Everyone says it will get easier as time goes by, but to tell you the truth everyday that passes just seems to get a little harder. Until then....rest in peace.

Jeremy,
All though I was never lucky enough to have met you, it is easy to see that you are an amazing man whose legacy will truly live forever. To Jeremy's family, my thoughts and prayers continue to be with you for ours is a lonely plight. For Chris, Jeremy and Jared will always be with us. Keep fighting the good fight and may God bless.

Hi Jeremy

Happy Birthday! It was a tough birthday for me. I know you were here with me...because we always celebrated ours together. If I could I would hold all of mine till we meet again so we can celebrate together. I miss you very much. It was only a year ago you were my best man at my wedding and that is how I always remember you. Love you

Hi Son,
Well tomorrow, 10/23/06, you will be 27 years old and on 10/24/06 it will be 6 months that you have been gone from us. We all miss you so much and it still seems like a big dream and we are hoping we wake up soon. We think about you everyday and will never forget you or how you lived your life. I just hope when my turns come, I will be good enough to be in your presence and see you again. Even though the days and months pass, it don't seem to get easier. It is just wrong that you were taken away from us but we will have to learn to live with sorrow. We will all be out to see you on Monday and wish you a happy birtday. I know you probably know, but for everyone else, your grave marker is supposed to be in place for you birthday. Happy Birthday Son, we love you.

Jeremy,
I was at your sister's house last night watching Logan, Garrett, and Hayden. I remember everytime I saw you, you would ask me if I had seen them lately and I could see how much you loved them. Please watch over the kids and the rest of your family. They miss you so much, and this month has been especially hard for them. We all love you and miss you and we are working every day to keep your memory alive.

Jeremy,

Once again leaving you something on here makes me feel a little better, not much but a little. Like others have said things happen and remind us of you in some way. Being Halloween time just cant forget the costumes yoy have had in the past. Kiss and Mullet Brothers are my favorites.People ask me about the braclet I wear everyday, ask what is that for. I tell them a good friend of mine was taken from us, and this is how I keep him with me. Every where I go. Man I wish we could go back in time and change a few things. You always hear people say you really dont know what you have until it is taking away, that is so true. The day that we meet again, is a day I am looking foward too. A hand shake that seems so simple and basic can be so strong. We think of you every day. Watch over us, we need it. As always " You will never be forgotten"
