Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Today marks 19 years. Most days it feels like just yesterday. Other days a lifetime. Not a single day goes by that I don’t miss you. There will never be another person like you, and the world is a little darker without your light and love.

You’d be so proud of your kids and grands. They’re amazing people and carry your legacy daily.

Someday I will get to hug your neck and hear your frequent laugh. Until then, I’ll love and miss you always.

Happy birthday! I selfishly wish you were here to celebrate with your girls and grand babies, but rejoice that you’re in Heaven. I miss you every single day. I’ll be back behind the mic dispatching soon, and I pray as I did for ten years that you’ll be proud of me. I love you always.

Dylan is learning to drive and you’re not here to pull him over and give him a hard time. That crushes me. I miss you so much. Not a single day passes...

We have lost another brother in Arkansas to join you. Drive by your accident scene every week and remember you. The flowers were nice to see again this year. So, many drive by them and have no clue why they are there. As for me..... NEVER FORGOTTEN..... Prayers for your family...

Not a day goes by. I miss you so much. I wish you were here more than anything. You're great grand baby is here, and she's beautiful. I hate you aren't here to see all these grands grow up. They'd love you as we did, and still do. Love and miss you terribly!

Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.

Not a day goes by dad that I don't set and wonder how things wld be if u wasn't took away from us! As u know I have my hands full with the kids I guess its what I get for breaking my promise and walking out of my marriage... All I can do is pray and put it in gods hands that they will turn out at least half as great as all of us did lord knows you did a great job raising all of us I'm very thankful for all I and mom did to give us a wonderful life! I love and miss u more than any will ever understand love u dad

Hey George,
It's been a while since I've been on here but I have thought of you constantly. I'm doing a project for school regarding fallen officers and of course you are my primary thought. I miss you so much and I can't seem to stop crying and get any work done. If you were here you'd laugh and tell me to cut it out, but I just can't help it. My heart is just breaking. Thank you for keeping watch over all of us, especially your brothers and sisters in blue. I pray you continue to keep us all lined out from Heaven. I love and miss you more than these words can convey!
