Reflections for Police Officer Thomas Richard Meyers
We had known Thomas R. Meyers. My doughter was an Exchange Studend . She lived in his Familie like a real doughter. My Husband and I visited the Familie and we saw what a wonderfull Person Thomas R . Meyers was.
We were very helpless when we heard about his Death !!!!!
He wants allways to help people and then a drunken person killed him.We are speachless.........
We want that this person stays in prison for 30 years !!!!!!!

Tom,
It is hard for old cops to say much. Although we have a ton to say, we go blank when it comes to officers we knew and loved that left us the way you did. When I'm gone, I hope I am lucky enough to see you again.

Trudy, Troy, and Tracy:
I just want to express my sincere condolences in the loss of your husband and father. Trudy, I just listened to your segment on CopNet's In The Line Of Duty with Craig Floyd.
I really appreciated being able to hear you speak on the loss of your husband and the circumstances surrounding his death.
God bless you and your family!

Dad,
You were not only on this earth to work. Although you loved it much, you were a father as well. I remember the times you would drive me to school, to the orthodontist and to breakfast. The times you would pretend the car was an airplane taking off on another excursion and keep the illusion up the entire ride. You made me feel I was always a princess and protected me like a father should. Every holiday was special and mom and I would awake to a special gift from you, the Christmas extravaganza breakfasts you would prepare. Troy and I are now the loving brother and sister you were always hoping for on our long road trips. You are missed and loved by many.
I miss you everyday and continue telling stories to the grandson you will never meet. Brennan knows his Grandpa Tom was a police officer and talks to you on his police radio, dresses in the gear and gives tickets to us all. I smile, laugh and cry all at once. I keep your memory alive for him and myself.
Love,
your little girl always

I really don't know where to start this. Tom was a very good friend of mine and we had been through alot as fellow brothers on the dept. Tom was never one to place his work off on another officer . He was always the first one arriving at work and the last one to leave. May God rest his soul in forever peace. Tom you are not forgotten however you are missed each and every day at roll call. Rest in peace my brother your tour has ended . Till we meet again my friend we will forever remember and miss you.
