Reflections for Trooper First Class Jimmie Harold White, II
Rest in peace Trooper 1st Class White.

I was on scene, and witnessed when this unfortunate accident occurred. I was the Superintendent of Aerospace Medicine, coordinating medical coverage for the Air Show event. Being the first medical person on scene, I immediately called for life flight. I forever have this mishap etched in my mind. I remember helping to stabilize Trooper White for the helicopter. I wish that the outcome would have been better. My heart and prayers continue to go out to the family and fellow officers. God Bless.

Many years ago I met Jimmie under difficult circumstances, on a very cold February afternoon, and because of that chance meeting I remember him. My husband at the time had shot himself in our house while I was at work and Jimmie, along with several other officers, had been called to the house. Jimmie was the first person I came into contact with upon my arrival home. Initially it was not a pleasant meeting because of the circumstances-I argued with him about telling me what had happened to my husband. It was only later, in college, that we crossed paths once again and I learned that my situation was the first time in which Jimmie had been involved in a death notification. He mentioned that it was something he had never forgotten. My heart broke for him but he was ever so professional and polite about his experience. I, in turn, have never forgotten Jimmie. God Bless him.

Jimmie, I will remember the day we lost you for the rest of my life. Early that morning you brought cold sodas to the lonely gate guards and asked how we were. You brought joy to myself and all the other people who’s lives you touched with your personality and professionalism. You were here on earth a short time, but will never be forgotten brother. Ride on in heaven and know you left the world a better place.

Jimmie - thought about you quite a bit this week. What a laugh, what a smile. You always wanted to serve your fellow citizens in some capacity, and now you serve all of mankind as one of our angels. God bless you my friend. Eternally grateful for your service.

Jimmie was my riding partner on the ASP motorcycle squad and I can tell you without a doubt, he lived and breathed the State Police. He was the best of the best and I miss him daily. I can’t explain my feelings for Jimmie. We lost a great Trooper that day and I hope and pray that Jimmie is on that Road King on the arms and wings of the angels in heaven. God Bless you Jimmie. I love ya buddy and will see you soon. Billy Tester(ret) ASP

Jimmie, it's been quite a few years since we were cutting up and getting smart back at DET 030 at the UofA. Last time we talked was 1992, I reckon. Glad I found this page, wanted to say I miss you, and sorry your time came far too quickly. You were one of the best, and missed by many. Hope you're keeping watch on us from above.

My little brother, what do I say. I love you, I miss you. I remember the day you were born; Dad was so happy to have a son...he didn't know then what kind of son you would become. But I digress. You came home and then I remember you crying...and crying.... Then I remember carrying you around on my hip. Taking you places with me in the neighborhood, whether it was in Illinois or in the Philippines. Remember riding on that back of that water buffalo? So many wonderful memories. I was always so proud of my little brother. Riding your big wheel on two wheels, your love of models, the diorama of the train set that totally consumed the back patio, your bunny rabbit. I could go on and on. Fast forward to adulthood. I think of the kind of human being you were...caring, protective....I remember arguing with Mom and you jumping to her defense. You loved Mom with all your being and you would protect her always. What do I say about Dad; you worshiped him. You modeled yourself in his image. You were his best friend and he yours. Then you became a husband, and what a husband. Devoted; I think that says it best...yes, completely devoted. To others you were a friend, and you meant something different to each of them. The kind of friend you can count on and trust. Some even trusted you with their lives. I would be surprised to learn you ever had an enemy. People talk about character, it's so easy to describe using words, but I believe you lived those words and did it with ease. It came naturally to you; it's just how you were. Kind, gentle, honest, hard working, and dependable. Have I mentioned how funny you were? Hilarious, always making us laugh with your impressions...Chris Farley was the best. But in the end Jimmie, I think of you as beloved. BELOVED...my beloved little brother...little Jimmie or wee Jimmie as Mom would say. We are all still here Jimmie, we still miss you, and it still hurts. It really physically hurts; I suppose that it always will. But we are thankful to have had you in our lives, grateful for you. So very blessed to have had you as our Son, our Brother, our Husband and our Friend. Wee Jimmie....much beloved.

Jimmie – I remember this day as if it were yesterday. I think of you often remembering the great times at PCSO before you left to go work with ASP.

Jimmie,
It has been twelve years since you passed. I just got my email that Captain Eremea still sends out to remind us. We had a blast in Troop School, and those memories of the DI's (Brooks, Wicker, Eremea) yelling at us will never leave my memories- God Bless!
