Reflections for Deputy Sheriff Brandy Lyn Winfield

Brandy,

Been a long time brother. Still think of you often, of the fun we had in the academy and how we used to cut on each other all the time.

RIP brother, we have it from here.

Brandy,

I think that so much has probably changed since you have been gone. I can't imagine how difficult it still is for everyone. Please bring some peace to everyone and keep watching over them. A Bucyrus trooper recently joined you in heaven and I know his family is really struggling now too. I think of you often.....

Hey Brandy,

Bobby Koteles posted a picture of you on his Facebook page that I saw today and it reminded of a few good times. I was just thinking of you. Miss you.

You can shed tears that he is gone, or you can smile because he has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all he's left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see him, or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live ...yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember him only that he is gone, or you can cherish his memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back. Or you can do what he'd want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.

Bran,
Have not written on here before. Guess I was worried to share my feelings with others. I just wanted you to know I have been thinking about you a lot. I miss our old meetings when I was on midnights. Thanks for everything. You're the best!

Brandy,
Just as you are thought about many days, today is a day that leaves many us of us very heavy hearted. Attended the memorial tonight in your honor. It was wonderful to see that many people come to honor their hero. You will never be forgotten Brandy.

Five years. Doesn't seem like that long, but then again it seems longer. I still think of you a lot. Rest easy hero. Enjoy your time until your family and friends can meet you up there on the golden highway.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 5th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

The person who is stealing from your grave has a shameless soul. How that must hurt your family.

Rest In Peace

Your smiling face is missed today as it has been the past five years. It has been a sad and hard road for many people and especially your family. Always remember that you will never be forgotten.

Bran,
You are still thought of and missed every day. It is so hard to believe it has been 5 years. It seems like yesterday that I seen you chasing Landon around the bowling alley. Keep an eye out on your family and a special eye out on your dad. He really needs you right now.

The anniversary of this nightmare is tomorrow and I hate it every year. I know you understand that I want to try to spend tomorrow keeping my mind off it, so I wanted to write today so that you know I (and everyone else) still remember and miss you, buddy.
