Hey Tim. It's Jackson. It's been so long now. I just want you to know how happy you made my mom feel, and Patrick and I. You were an amazing man. And we both looked up to you. There's not a day where I don't think about you. You're my hero, and I love you. Please keep on watching over all of us. I love you Tim.

Shame on Regina Romero and thank you Mrs. Graham-Potter for clearly, heartfeltly and candidly putting it out there for what so many outside of LE still just can't seem to grasp. I would also like to take a minute and honor and say thank you to the taxi cab driver who selflessly and heroically tried to intervene only to have his life taken from him also. May God Bless him and watch over his family as well. Deputy Graham, rest in peace knowing that your service and sacrifice will never, ever be forgotten by your law enforcement brethren.

I can’t imagine what his little boy went through not having his father let alone his widow. I hope it all worked out these past 14 years. Thanks Tim for your service!!

Tim, yesterday marked 14 years since you gave the ultimate sacrifice. Yesterday I also took the sergeants promotional test. Before I left the house to head to the training center for the test I had to stop and get your coin out of the safe and take it with me. That coin has been in my pocket for every shift for the last 14 years. Not a day goes by that I don’t reflect on your sacrifice.

RIP

Sherri, For Nike to use an anti American anti law enforcement narrative to sell sneakers is a vulgar new low in American corporate culture and society.
My prayers are with Tim and your family . On behalf of all the families behind the names on the National Law Enforcement Memorial including mine we thank you for your courage.

All losses are difficult, and I know that this one is particularly so for the family, the department, and the community. I pray God's great peace and comfort upon your family Tim, and know that they are in good hands, just as you are.

May God's healing be upon them, and may this year bring about renewed hope and love.

Ten years snuck right up Tim. It still feels like it was just yesterday when we found out what happened. :( A lot has changed since we last saw each other. I left LE, moved home and became a Firefighter and an EMT. Every day I am out on the road, I know you are right there with me.

We'll see you again someday, but for right now, keep my spot warm for me.

I first met Tim Graham while at the Arizona State Prison Complex Eyman, Rynning Unit on graves in 2001. As a new sergeant to the unit he quickly made an impression on me as a hard working and dedicated officer. Tim was one of those guys that would drop everything to help you. Over the next couple of years, he and my family became close, having numerous dinners and helping me with my yard. He even gave me one of his precious banana trees for my yard. Tim’s lifelong dream was to become a police officer and it came true when he became a Pima County Sheriff’s Deputy. I had the privilege to pin his badge on him an honor I will never forget. Rest in peace my brother, you will never be forgotten

I attended the Southern Arizona Law Enforcement Training Center with Tim. I wish I had known him better. I still remember my supervisor calling me into his office in August of 2005 to inform me that one of my classmates had been killed in the line of duty. I remember attending his funeral mass and his funeral. I remember all of his class mates standing in formation nearby the funeral. I remember watching his wife as we all stood at attention.

I didn't work for his agency. But I wish I could have been there that night. God have eternal mercy upon Tim's soul.

I think about you all the time buddy. Thank you for your service to your community. You laid down your life even while trying to detain a mentally unstable person because you knew it was the right thing to do.

Dear Tim,
It's been yet another year and your smile still stays in the back of my mind like I saw it yesterday.. I was recently in a bad car accident and I wonder if you are one of few who helped me make it through it.... Given the circumstances of the accident I shouldn't have survived.. Part of me knows you watch over me, and I miss you dearly. I hope you continue to watch over me and all your loved ones until we can someday join you. .
"fabulous!" I'll never forget...
