I still can't believe you're gone. It has been 2 years and a day does not go by that noboday here thinks about you guys. It makes it hard for me and Maureen to have our anniversary on this day, we don't feel like doing nothing. Every day devin and brittany (your neice and nephew) think about you ask questions and even pray every night to you and mom and grandma. They miss all of you so much!!!! Some times i just don't know what to say to them because i am hearting so bad. We need your guys help in watching over us and guiding us in the right paths. Give mom and grandma a kiss from us here. LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!!


P.S. DON'T WORRY MATT ME AND JASON ARE STILL DRINKING ENOUGH JAGER BOMBS FOR THE THREE OF US !!!!!!!!!

Just wanted you to know that I'm thinking of you and your family today. Everyday is hard, but some are just harder than others, this being one. Instead of us saying that it was Clint's anniversary date, I wanted to say it was Clint's First and Second Birthday in Heaven. So on that note, I hope you don't mind Happy Second Birthday in Heaven Officer Bowens, look Clint up for me tell him I sure miss him.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

god bless you and officer fettig

They told me it would get easier with time Matt....they were wrong! It's been two years now and it's still seems just as hard as when I first got that damn call. Not a day goes by that I don't lose sleep or cry some tears for you. I miss you so much Matt, life just isn't the same as when you were here. I hope you and Jen are doing fine up there and you are taking care of Mom and Grandma. We all miss you so much that I couldn't even begin to put into words the pain we all feel. I just keep telling myself, it's only a matter of time before I see you guys again.

Keep watching over us and give Mom a hug and kiss for me. I love you bro!!!

Your big brother,

Jason

"Who You'd Be Today"
By Kenny CHESNEY

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
I feel you everywhere I go.
I see your smile, I see your face,
I hear you laughin' in the rain.
I still can't believe you're gone.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who'd you be today?

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
Settle down with a family,
I wonder what would you name your babies?
Some days the sky's so blue,
I feel like I can talk to you,
An' I know it might sound crazy.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who you'd be today?

Today, today, today.
Today, today, today.

[Instrumental Break]

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
The only thing that gives me hope,
Is I know I'll see you again some day.

Some day, some day, some day.

Matt, you are a true hero and have not been forgotten. I know the pain felt by those left behind and the many broken hearts. I also lost my son in the Line of duty in 2004 and I know what your family is living through. We live in yesterdays becasue an individual with no regard for law and order took away our tomorrows. Keep watch over your family and protect them from harm. Try to ease some of their grief. You are a true hero and will never be forgotten.

Matt,

Just wanted to say that I think of you and Jenny everyday, and that you were a good friend and partner. You and I had good times on and off the job. Remembering when you, Rodney and I took our motorcycle's for a ride in June of 2003 to the Gratiot cruse. On the way there you and Rod were trying to keep up with me along S/B I-75 near Rosa Parks blvd. and you dumped your bike at 70mph. You said that you were okay and continued to ride for the rest of the day. You had heart brother, we miss you bro. send our love to your mom.
