Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Hi Honey, It is almost 6 years next month. I wanted to tell you that your second Grandson was born today, but I guess you knew that. I am sure you had something to do with sending him to us. His name is Shane Richard, and I will make sure your grandson Scotty will help you look after him here on earth.
Forever and Always My Love,
Carolyn

Reflecting upon Scott, Carolyn and Family ~
I still remember the genuine smile Scott readily displayed, and the awesome bookcase he personally made as a gift to my office. His wife was the All-Star on our Braces Team for many years, and Scott consistently supported every endeavor and aspect of Carolyn and her career with us.
My wife worked with undercover and detectives for years at LAPD and this expanded my deep respect and admiration for all officers and staff, particularly Scott.
We are sad that his earthly life is over (and eternal life is underway); mostly we are glad that Scott happened to touch our hearts and lives.

Hi Honey, I couldn't bring myself to write you on 12/28/07, I still miss you so much even after these 5 years. The girls you would be so proud of, and your little Grandson named for you "Scotty", is always told of his Papa in Heaven and how brave he was. I love you Darlin', Your loving wife, Carolyn

On the 5th anniversary of Detective Schiller's death, we honored his service in our patrol briefing by reading his entry from ODMP. Each day, we honor one fallen officer on the anniversary of their death so as to keep them in our thoughts, and also to remind us of the dangers inherent in our job. Detective Schiller is not forgotten.

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

Hello my beautiful brother, you are heavy on my mind today. I look at your picture on my wall every day and wonder why, guess I will know the answer someday. I am proud of the work you did, the difference you made and the man that you were. You are always close to my heart brother dear. I love you.

Daddy,
Just wanted to say I LOVE YOU and miss you so much. Life has not been the same since you became my angel. I wish you could have been here to walk me down the aisle when I got married to a great man. I will miss watching football games with you, helping you with the yards, and mainly miss your warm hugs. I will always be your little buggy. I hope you are having fun up there, see you again some day. I love you Daddy!

Love, Your Bug
XOXO

He is and always will be my HERO!! He always lifted me up when I was down, made me happy when I was sad, and made me the person I am today. Even though he was so sick he never looked scared because he knew that I would be upset, and he hated to see me cry. He took the oath of that badge and lived by it everyday.

I remember the late nights working and you were always the one there in your office burning the midnight oil. You still managed to have a smile or a joke, even when you were tired. You will not be forgotten.
