Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Beautiful Sister of Mine,

Just stopping through to show some love since you came across my mind. The moment that I saw your photo their was a connection to you as a person and the fact that we have the same occupation. I have been faithfully posting on here for a couple of years now and a proud of our similarities. You will never be forgotten and will always be remembered for your professionalism and dedication to duty. May God always bless you and your family.

It's me again. Thinking about you always. It was Weedies birthday yesterday. She would have been 24. I think about both of you all the time. Time just goes by so fast. Your grandson is doing good. My grandchildren are doing well too. Krystal is do any day now. I can't believe she is having another baby. Her name will be Kali Marie. Today Dennis's dad would have been 96. We shouldn't be selfish. He did leave 95 years.

Missing You Still

I went out to the memorial and Saturday and put out flowers. I had been thinking about you all week. You lost your baby daughter in a car accident Thursday August 12, 1993. Weedies was 6 years old. It's hard to believe your baby would be 23 years old. I can't believe it's been 17 years just like I can't believe you have been gone 7 years. Time just goes by and takes us with it. Missing you always.

Love Your Twin Sis

Hey sis. Dennis an I were sitting on the back patio having drinks and was just thinking the only thing that was missing was you and mom. We were waiting for the kids and grandkids to show up. I can't believe we are grandmothers. Dennis and I are going to Las Vegas the end of the month. I am getting excited. We went to Mexico the first week in May and I thought about you the whole time. You always told us life is to short enjoy yourself.

Love You For All Of Eternity And Beyond

hey mommy i just left aunties house. Grandma came in today and everyone was here as usual. Tina came by today. It was so good to see her. We talked about you like always. We all miss u so very much. We have a new member to welcome to the family. In case you haven't heard Krystal is having another bundle of joy. Guess what? Duke Duke called grandma granny today and so did Bella. They remember her, isn't that amazing since they have not seen her in awhile. I know you were there today because i felt your presence as always. You are greatly missed and i wish you could see how big your grandson is. Tain tain asks me about you all the time. He wants to be a police officer even though he is only six. Thats so crazy. I have to keep him out of your cabinet because he wants to play with your whistle and your other police memorabilia. We will always miss and love you. You will never be forgotten.

I was introduced to Sheila by Michael Coker at he class he taught this week. Through his story and the reflections posted here, I think I can safely say I missed meeting a fine young lady and officer. My prayers go to her family and friends who miss her dearly. May we all meet in the better place she is already watching us from!

I just wanted to say to the family of this fallen hero that she is not forgotten and is in the hearts of so many of us who continue to carry the torch for her and all the others who have given EVERYTHING for everyone else. I did not know Officer Herring but the many many reflections left by family and friends of hers speaks for itself. May god bless each one of you everyday.

I had to speak with a witness to an accident at work today. His name was M. Drake. He is a Norfolk Deputy Sheriff. I immediately mentioned my identical twin sis was a Norfolk Officer and she was killed in the line of duty 01-16-2003. He knew your name. He said officer Sheila Herring. He states he came up to me at your memorial and gave me a hug. It's nice to know the people have not forgotten about you. I never will. It made my day.

I love you beyond eternity

Well it's our birthday 01-27-1963. The bad thing about my birthday is it was meant to celebrate with you. I can't believe I will be 47. You were taken from me right before we were going to celebrate our 40th. I always hope this day just goes as fast as it comes, Then I try to remember a HERO was born on this day and I am lucky enough to know someone that would actually give their own life for the someone else.
