It's not how you died that made you a hero.
It's how you lived.

Billy, I wanted to take a moment to say HAPPY EASTER! I think of you every day but during this time of year when we are focusing on God's sacrifice for the world, I can't help but think of your sacrifice also. Rest in peace, Billy, you're in a better place than we are. You are not and will never be forgotten.

Dear Billy, It has taken me nearly five years to write, but here I am. You are greatly missed in the law enforcement community. We always need good cops and you were one of the best. I remember the day in the police academy that you were hurt and you told me that it was just your luck. We just laughed and you joked about having black eyes forever. If we only knew. I just wish that day never happened in November. You will never be forgotten my friend. Never.

Hey Billy,

Please help me. Help me see that everything will be okay and that everything does happen for some reason. I'm so lost right now. I love you and miss you more than words can ever descripe!

You will never be forgotten! I love you Billy!

Hey Billy-
I seem to be really struggling right now. Nothing seems to matter. It doesn't seem right that you where taken from us. You where so happy here, and such a great cop. I guess heaven needed another angel.
Kayle is too cute, and she's so full of life. I know I'll see you agian someday, and what a wonderful day that will be. I love you with all my heart Billy.
Days seem to be getting worse, your always on my mind. To bad we can't take back the events of November 13, 2001. I would do it in a heart beat. Everyone says the pain will fade away, but it doesn't. Your sacrifice will never be forgotten. I never thought I would have to go through something like this. We will make sure Kayle knows everything.

Love you Billy!

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don’t bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I’m not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I’m ok
But that’s not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin’ to do

It’s hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I’m doin’ It
It’s hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I’m alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin’ with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

Not seeing that loving you
That’s what I was trying to do

Hey Billy,
how are you? We remember decorating a Christmas tree with you a long time ago. It was me, Lauren, Chris dad, and my mom. We feel bad for not ever getting to know you, and not trying to get in touch with you. We talk to Chris now, he's great! Lauren and him talk all the time. We wish we could talk to you. We love you!

Billy-
You don't know how much I miss you. I feel so awful for not ever getting to know you. I hope you are doing great and I hope you have a wonderful easter. I love you very much.

March 24, 2006

Billy,
We talked about you in class today and how this job sometimes means making the ultimate sacrifice. I still can't believe your gone. Thanks for keeping watch over us.

Hi, Billy ~

Think about you every single day; you'll always be missed. We all seem to be struggling right now, in one way or another; guess the struggles make us miss even more the ones we've lost. I think about your perfect and glorious surroundings and am so happy for you and so many other friends and loved ones. We'll join you soon, no doubt, and what a great day that will be!! We all miss you and love you, always.

Hey Billy! How are you? I think about you every day! I hope your doing well! You will NEVER be forgotten!

We are dying from the moment of birth, indeed from the instant of conception. Creation bares within itself the seeds of its own destruction. Our lives are finite things; We live our aloted span, and are no more. No matter what we do or how hard we try, the best we can hope for is a brief delay of the inevitable.

It doesn't matter when we die or how we die, but what we do while we are here. I miss you Billy. Prissy seems happy. I still can barely hold it together when I run into her. My kids are getting big. I feel like they will be in college tomorrow. I cannot seem to get this marriage thing right but maybe I am not cut out for it. I know you are watching out for me. I think about you more often than I write. Say hello to my grandpa....

Billy,
You don't know me but i have the priviledge of working with your brother chris. Chris is a good friend and not a bad cop just as you were. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten.

Billy,
Just thought I'd drop by and say hi. I think about you often and how messed up it all still feels. I still have your photo pin above my sunvisor in my cruiser to never forget. Anyway, just thought I'd say hi.
Keep watching over us,
Bo

Hey Billy, just wanted you to know you're on my mind today....It's a New Year and you're still missed so badly. The lives of many people were changed on the date you left us. All give some, some give all. You gave it all, Billy, and you will always be remembered. You are forever in our hearts.
