Hey Eric, Its been so long my friend. I often think of our great times together at work and on our motorcycles. I really miss you and think of you daily. I will never forget you my friend. I had lunch with your daughter a few times over the years and let me say to you. She is a very mature and lovely girl. She is doing fine. See you someday Eric, so be ready to have some more fun.

Eric,

While we have never met, I have met your sister and can feel her pain after all of these years. Not everyone understands the pain and the people left behind. I can only hope that the sands of time will ease their pain.

While we have never met you are my brother you will never be forgotten.

Hey Bud,
I simply cannot believe how the time has passed the last 13 years without you here. Time does not heal the pain of losing you, it never will.

After all this time, I finaly watched your funeral video with the kids. It has taken a long time for me to be able to do that. I love and miss you so much each and every day!!
I love you.

Hey Bud,
Andrew asked me the other day "when are we going to visit Uncle Eric at the cemetary?" He never met you, but hears some awesome stories and sees the love in my face when I speak of you. I told him soon.

I love you,

Hello Bud,
Another year, there just aren't words to describe the constant longing to see, hear, touch, and share things with you. The kids and I talk about you and they share their feelings of how much they would have liked to have known you in person. They hear stories of our lives together and how much fun we had together. They like to hear about things we did.
I love and miss you so much!!!

Love,
Suzanna

I never got to meet you, but I see your picture on a plaque during briefing. I have met many an individual whose life you touched. I only hope that I am as good at the job as you were.

Hellllllooooo Bud!!
Today is your 45th birthday. I am eternally sadened that you are not here year after year. I have always been selfish with you and my love for you. The feelings and the pain do not go away no matter how much time passes.

Kimberly and Andrew wish you a happy birthday. Their love for you is always there. They always say that they never got to meet you and it makes them sad.
I constantly tell them that they should be happy that they have each other, because you never know what can happen.

I love and miss you so much bud!!!

Your memory is honored and revered today. I am so sorry you were robbed of your life at such a young age. You are still loved and missed by so many. The hurt of losing our beloved officers never goes away, but both the pain and pride are forever. I can see that your sister treaures your memory and her relationshp with you

I recently met your brother-in-law Andy who is very active in COPS and contributes so much to fallen officers. I am sure you are proud of the contributions that your family is making.

Rest in Peace

Ten years, a decade, unbelievable... You're always in our thoughts. Left a rose on the local memorial in Oregon in your memory. You are not forgotten.

Helloooooo Bud,
We used to say that all the time. I used to call you early in the morning and say that to you. I could hear Evelyn in the background saying "Tell your sister not to call here so early in the morning". I loved those phone conversations. I still remember your phone number and what you said on the answering machine. Hi, youv'e reached 672-____ please leave a message".
Kimberly, Andrew and I said a prayer this morning for you, and that I was so blessed to have had as much time with you as I did, and what a awesome relationship we had. Kimberly is sad that she and Andrew didn't get to meet you. I told her that you were looking down on us right now and that you were proud of us. She got a big smile on her face.
I love and miss you just as much as I did 10 years ago. You are forever in our hearts.

Love you,
Suzanna, Kimberly and Andrew
