I have not heard from Lorrie in a while. Please stay by her side, give her the strength to carry on with out your body here on this earth. Be with her in her dreams, and let her know that you are still there. I know she is keeping herself busy, to past time. Slow her down and let her know that she is not alone. Stay with your children and keep your spirit fresh within them. If your absence is still hard for me, I can only imagine what your family is feeling. Til we meet again, your friend, T.

No amount of time served will ever be enough to bring you home. But now that things are over, you will finally be able to rest and your family, friends, and co-workers will be able to hopefully find some closure out of all of this. Please continue to keep watch over all of them.

Hey B, I haven't heard from your mom or dad in a while, I am going to stop by and check on them. I can't sleep and keep coming back to this site everyday, trying not to leave a message, because I know that is not your style, but you know me. Please stop by in your family members dreams tonight and give them a comforting hug to let them know that you are still with them. Rest in peace my friend.

Hey B, just wanted to say that I miss you much. Please stay with me through these difficult times. Since you have left and went to Heaven, things down here have done a complete 180. I am trying to remember everything that you told me and tried to teach me. Now I see why we had those conversations. I still don't think that I can do do this without my partner(you) by my side. It is getting harder everyday. Please help me to keep the faith, please help me to be able to help Lorrie and the rest of your family. Please be with your wife because her birthday is coming up. Make her feel your presence so that she doesn't feel alone.

I never met Officer Brian Winder. But his son Corey was in my art class at Woodlawn high school. I saw Corey on the news and I was shock. In school he never act like anything was wrong. Corey you are a strong person. To Officer Winder's family know that GOD has given him so much rest and peace.

Brian,
Tragedy struck today at the memorial run for Duke. Please take the newbie, Grant Hunter, under your wing. Between you,Duke and Steve he should learn fast.
I talked to Lorrie today, dealing with the kids and family stuff, she sounded so tired. Watch over her Brian, she has so much to do now. We'll watch over her from here too,

Brian,
On the one year anniversary of your death, I hope that you are truly resting in peace and will continue to keep watch over your family, friends, and co-workers from above. I had the unfortunate experience of attending the first day of the trial this past week and it hurt me to see your family have to sit through what they were hearing and seeing going on in that court room. It upset me to see how your co-workers were treated throughout the entire trial. It hurts me even more that there was no closure for them last week and that as they remember you today on the date of your death, they still have that burden hanging over their heads that they will have to continue to hear your horror story played out again next week in court. I have been told that the trial is expected to conclude on July 5th. That day would have been my Duke's 30th birthday. The best news I could hear on the 5th would be to hear that justice has been served in favor of you and your family and that they can finally find some closure and peace.
Lorrie and family,
I will be there tonight at the candlelight vigil. I think back to last year at this time in my life and hearing the news that Brian was taken away from all of you and how I still had my husband to hold. I remembered Duke coming home from Brian's funeral and telling me how the funeral got to him emotionally. I never would have guessed that two weeks later that I would find myself feeling the same pain and torture that all of you had felt. One of the first people I wanted to talk to was you Lorrie. Although I wish I had never met you under these unfortunate circumstances, I am glad you have been apart of my life for almost a year now and I will always be there for you and for your family should any of you need me.
Love,
Jenn
