Missing you terribly.
It is hard to put in words my feelings. The heart still hurts, the tears still flow.
It is still like living in a bad dream.
Think of you everyday.
I love you so much.

Thinking of you all day. Still can not get in my heart that you are not here.
I look at your picture and think of what should have been.
Missing you today on Thanksgiving. Thanking God that I had you for 35 years.
Love,
Mom

Dear Lorraine,

I just read the newspaper article, I hope and pray this does not get any consideration whatsoever. The law needs to be upheld and some kind of justice served.

My heart and thoughts are with you.

Another year has passed without you being hear with those that love you dearly. They will be thinking of you today, even more than all the other days of the year. Watch over them and comfort them. You have not been forgotten.

Today is the 9th year of your EOW. I can't believe that it has been that long since I saw and spoke to you.
At 1:30AM went and lit candles and put 9 white roses at the place where you were murdered, to remember the years that you have been missed. There were many Deputies and Officers there to remember you also.
I thought it would be easier as the years go by, but the hurt never goes away.
My heart still has a hard time accepting it happened to you, but there are many names on the wall in Washington and on this site that I know that their parents, wifes/husbands, children are having the same feelings.
One day I know I will see you again.
Love,
Mom

It is hard to believe that it has been 9 years on that dreadful night you were taken from us. You are dearly missed by your family, friends and co-workers. Rest easy.

Was thinking about your Mom today and thought I would stop at your page and leave a reflection as September is almost here and she will be forced to relive that horrible day from nine years ago. I know she carries all those precious memories of you in her heart and thinks of you every day. Keep watch over all of your loved ones, come to them in their dreams to let them know you are near and watching over them. Thank you for your dedicated service to others and the service to your country. I will end with the following inscription that comes from a head stone in Ireland:
"Death leaves heartache no one can heal,
Love leaves a memory no one can steal."

You were a Gulf War verteran and you came back safely. I am so thankful I had you a little longer. We miss you so much. It still seems like a dream that I will never wake up from. It has been nine years since I saw you last but it seems like just yesterday.
I love you so much.

You and all of your loved ones are in my thoughts on this special day, Police Officer Memorial Day. Continue to keep watch over all of them. I know they carry a special love in their hearts that is also filled with loving memories of you. Someone recently sent me this quote and I'd like to leave it for your Mom because as a parent of a lost child, I know what she feels every day:

"The sense of loss does not diminish with time. In truth, the expression, 'time heals all wounds' is a myth. For parents, the loss of a child is permanent and mental scar tissue really does not grow over the grim memory. Rather, all tears are expended and a dull ache remains."

You will never be forgotten.

One day that man will pay for what he did to you. It is only a matter of time.
He can try and put it off as long as he can, but one day.......................

The joy of spring has been diminished
Since you're not here to share it.
But we'll try our best to enjoy nature's beauty,
Although it is a struggle to bear it.

Happy Birthday!
You are missed and loved so much.
I still can't believe that you are not here. But I know it is real because I can't see you, talk with you.
Tears still flow. Heart still hurts.
Love,
Mom
