Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Rest in peace Brother Chris, you are a true hero and will not be forgotten. Thank you for your courage and service, watch over us as we carry on.

As the second anniversary of Chris' death approaches (June 5) Chris' dad and I want everyone to know how much all the love and support shown to us these past 2 years has meant to us.  We just attended the California Peace Officers' Memorial in Sacramento (our 2nd time), and once again, seeing Chris' name on the memorial is just as hard to see as it was the first time.  We are not going to Washington, D.C. for the National Memorial this year, however.  My heart will be there for all the "first year" loved ones, because we surely know how it feels.

Chris will be loved and remembered forever.  What a son; what an officer; he is and will forever be our own personal hero.

Love, Mom & Dad

Janie & Steve,

I want you to know that I still think of you and Chrisopher often. Everytime I drive on Hwy. 67 and pass the sign dedicating that portion of the road in his honor I say a prayer for you. God bless you...
