Forgive me as I am a few days late with this posting. Thinking of you and all of your loved ones. Continue to keep watch over them and know that you will never be forgotten.
"No person is ever truly alone,
Those who live no more,
Whom we loved,
Echo still within our thoughts,
Our words, our hearts.
And what they did,
And who they were,
Becomes a part of all that we are,
Forever."

Happy Birthday baby!! You would have turned 40 today, but I know you would still only claim 29!! I sit here wondering what you would have looked like today. Would you have some grey hair? Would there be more laugh lines on your face? It's strange to only be able to think of you the way you were up until we lost you. I still your smile. I still here your laugh. Hard to believe that 6 years have past already. How far we have come without you....amazing. I still feel so connected to you in so many ways. The kids of course...they are growing so fast. Alex was looking through some old pictures the other night and there were those ones of you and the boys riding bikes in Va Bch at the other house. I remember you racing them down the street, laughing the whole time. They were all so little then. Now they are grown. Alex is driving now...that's scary! Just worrying about her the moment she steps out the door, until she gets back home. I'm losing some sleep over that! and CJ is starting Marching Band this year. No he's not going to be a flag twirler like you...ok it was a gun...whatever! You'd be proud of how they are growing. I miss the way things were. When we were ALL together, I know you know what I mean. It's hard losing more than just you. We still miss you every day...and yet, we all know you are always around....please continue to watch over all of the kids...and have a great birthday!!! OLD MAN!! all my love always...me

Hey Chrissy ~
Can you believe it's been 6 years? Time is such a crazy thing, sometimes it just crawls along and other times it just flies by. Some days it seems like yesterday Jesse was still here then others a lifetime ago. I know you understand what I mean.
Hope you and the kids are doing well. It's been a shamefully long time since we've talked - we need to catch up. The next few weeks are crazy for us but as soon as things settle down I will give you a call.
I'm thinking of you. Take care.

Two officers were struck down by a coward today. Someone who has probably spent his whole life blaming everyone else for his failures. Instead of looking in the mirror. and now a child will never know his father. This child will never have a picture of their father holding them. This mother will have to give birth to this baby, all alone, and the sheer joy of giving birth will be clouded by the pain and emptyness and anger of his death. It is these moments that i am most grateful. Grateful that we had the time we did with you. Grateful that you were not taken at the hand of someone else, some coward. You were a good, strong, honest, pure, loving man...father...husband...friend...I miss you so much...Today I greive for those families that are just beginning this journey. I wish I could tell him that it gets easier, but it never does...the breaks just get longer in between the awful heartache. Please watch over them baby...as I know you still watch over me and the kids...guide your brothers in heaven to the place you are..where you can help us and we know you are still with us...always send us your love...we so need it!! I love you forever baby...forever!!

Hello my love...being there with you was so hard...just when I think it's getting easier, it just pulls me back down that dark hole I have tried so hard to stay out of...I long for the day when it doesn't tear me to my very soul, but I fear that day will never come...How is that life has gone on without you for over 5 years now? How can it be that we have "survived"? More than anything I wish I could feel you again...really feel you. I know you are with me...you protect me...you guide me...I believe that with every part of me...but just to feel your arms...or see your smile...or hear your laugh...but I can't. I just have the memories....the memories are so clear and beautiful...I see you in my mind just as if you were here yesterday...I'm so grateful for the beautiful memories....I love you so very much...I always will...my beautiful funny loving husband....I will always love you! always, me
