Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

My thoughts are with your loved ones on this 3rd anniversary of your end of watch. I know for some the time has passed very slowly and each day is filled with thoughts of you. You are a true hero and will never be forgotten. Continue to keep watch over your loved ones, you will never be forgotten.

Rest in Peace, Officer Mims. Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Even though messages are not written to the sight very often,it doen't mean that you are not loved and missed every minute of every day. I think that it is just so hard to put it into words. The pain is just as real today as it was on that January day. Life will never be the same.

"If tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn't cry
the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;

But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand,

And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.

I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all that we shared,
And all the fun we had.

If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss some tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne,

He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
but here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
and since each day is the same way,
There's no longing for the past.

So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart "

Officer Mims, you are a true hero and will never be forgotten by your family nor the Blue Family. Watch over them as they travel through life's journey and show them the right path to take. You will never be forgotten.

Will this ever get any easier? I ask myself that question all the time and all I know is that I find myself thinking of you all the time and my heart breaks all over again. I think of you not being here to watch your kids grow up and missing out on so many other things and it just breaks my heart.I just cannot find the peace to let all this go.I want to remember all the good times that we shared as a family but the memories of the things that happened to you on that day just play over and over again in my mind. I hope that one day I can make peace with all of this but right now I don't see that happening. You were a kind and caring person and I am so happy that so many people knew that about you and I am glad that I have you watching over me,but I can't help but wish that you were still here with me and the rest of your family.I wish I could let you know how proud of you that I am and that I love you very much.You are in my thoughts every day....and I miss you

Although I never had the opportunity to meet Officer Mims, I know he was an amazing person. I've heard many stories from his son, Tony, and I enjoy every single one of them. I've told Tony many times that if his father was anything like him, I know he was a great person. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God bless.

I love you and miss you and I think about you every single day.

You only saw Dixie once, but she knows who you are. She see's your picture in the living room and says "Uncle Tony". I just had a little boy and we named him Anthony Colton. We'll all be sure to tell him of the Unlce he never met. We love and miss
you!

NO WORDS CAN DESCRIBE THE VOID THAT I FEEL IN MY HEART BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT HERE.KEEP SMILING DOWN ON ME, THE COMFORT OF THAT DOES HELP.I MISS YOU

July 8, 2005

Tony, I've known you for many years even tho we lost touch after our years at Boaz Christian School. I remember how quick you were with a smile and encouraging words whenever someone was down.It saddened me deeply to hear what had happened to you. But I know in my heart that your in a better place,watching over us all. God Bless your family and thank you Tony, for giving the ultimate sacriface. May you find rest in the arms of the angels.

Tony,

We miss you in the neighborhood! The kids were talking the other day about the things you used to do with them like playing hide and go seek, playing music, and listening to them when they had a problem. They REALLY miss you. Mark cherishes the old wooden baseball bat you gave him one summer and Talitha still sleeps in one of your old t-shirts she slept in when spending the night with Elisabeth. We laid you to rest on Mark's birthday and I will never forget the look on his face when he turned to me at the cemetery and said "I will never forget this day as long as I live." We love and miss you dearly!

I have never met Officer Mims. In his honor, I will be riding my police bike from Livingston, NJ to the National Police Memorial, Washington D.C.
To the Mims Family, I hope that I get to meet you there. If I don't God Bless.

I just wanted the loved ones of Officer Mims to know that the community still thinks of Tony.My late husband is buried close to him.When I go to visit the grave of my loved one I can not help but to stop by to visit Tony's. I do hope that knowing that we do still think of Tony and miss him helps you in some small way.
God bless you all
