Reflections for Police Officer Brian Steven Gregg

My children and I were at the library nearby that night as the tragic events unfolded. May we who are left pick up the fallen mantle and serve too. Father'sloveletter.com

It’s 16 years, but we will never forget the smiling, bike-riding small town policeman who was taken from us so cruelly and senselessly. Rest In Peace, Officer Brian Gregg.

I remember you today, as I have remembered you every day. It is 10 years today that God called you home. I keep you and your family in my prayers daily. It was an honor and a blessing to be your friend.

B, Here it is 9 years later & I still have a tear in my eye thinking about the night Mom called me in TN to tell me that you were gone. It seems like it was just yesterday we lost you. Life has gone on, but it's just not the same without our brother B. I often wonder how things would have been with you here still. Until we meet again.
All my Love,

Brian, So I am in Doylestown today, driving past the Courthouse. I see police officers all around but it doesn't click as this is the County Courthouse. Two Officers cross in front of my vehicle as I sit at the traffic light. I know I recognize them, but I can't place from where. I wave at them as I do to all Officers, just like I did with you everyday. I come home and check the local news and there it is. Headline story. I did not know. I wish I did as I would have been there for your family. So I am sitting here, tears on my keyboard again, remembering and missing you terribly.

Not a day goes by that I don't think about answering that first call from the ER reporting officers shot. May you rest in eternal peace.

Another year has gone by. It seems so unfair. I pray for you and your family often. I have to tell you that I can now speak about you without choking on my own tears. Life does go on, but it will never be quite the same without you here with us.

Brian,
I was just sitting here at my desk and was just thinking about you, I still can't beleave it has been 6 long years since that night. I still remember seeing you walking your beat and talking to the people on the street. That night we got the call i was sitting at the fire house and our pagers went off calling all us fire police out to help local PD with road closures, and free up Officers to look for your killer. The day of your funeral it was raining and cold, it was god crying on all of us that day. He felt like we all did, sad because we lost a brother,friend and fellow freedom fighter. We miss you everyday and we all think about you often. Bucks county lost a great Officer that day :(... God speed my friend

It's just a few hours until the moment 6 years ago you were taken from us. It's sad how your murderer gets a stay of execution but we all go on living without you here. May God bless all who loved you and grant them some sort of peace today. Someday, I know I will see you smile again. Love you & miss you...

Brian, I was just sitting here at work and thinking about you. That scum bag is sentenced to death on the date he took your life. They say only the good die young. In your case this is so true. You sister tells me of the many things you did for her. What a great brother. I'll say good-by for now, just know you are still thought of.

Not too far away, another officer was senselessly taken from his family & friends. All the news coverage made me flash back to how it was when you were taken from us. Don't have any words of wisdom to comfort or share because it just took time to learn to live with the hole in my heart. The tears are still just welled up below the surface. Miss you, buddy.

We tell your story Brother Gregg, so that others can honor you and in hopes that this never happens again.

You and your service to Newtown will never be forgotten. It was a pleasure serving along side of you.

Officer Gregg,

My wife and I are often reminded of your kindness and grace while you were in uniform here in town. My son was only 3 at the time of the horrible event that took your life, but the respect he currently shows toward men in uniform is most assuredly due to his interactions with you.

Thank you so much for being an officer that our town and, more importantly, all of the men and women who protect and serve in police departments throughout the country can be proud of.

Our prayers remain with you and your family.

Officer Gregg,

Over the Christmas holiday,I did a trip through Bucks County and into Newtown Borough. Walking through it,I can see why you loved being a cop there. I'm a part time/volunteer officer and have been for 14 1/2 years. Unlike yourself, I stumbled into law enforcement and when I joined my department, I was too old to be a full time officer,so I became a volunteer cop never realizing I would be doing it for so long and enjoying it. What I do is direct traffic and also walk our downtown which gives me the opportunity to talk to people. That is what I enjoy the most of policing, the public relations aspect of it, just like you did. Although the town I live in is bigger than Newtown and our department also bigger (60 people), it still has the personal touch that is missing in many large cities and departments.

Brian, after reading the many reflections, I wish that I had known you but I hope that we will meet in a better place. I am very honored and privileged to call you my brother.

Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday to You....

You really don't want me to keep on singing, do you?

Missing you today, just like everyday, since God called you up to serve on his heavenly department.
