Reflections for Sergeant Michael William Larson
Hey Daddy,
How is it going? It's been a while, huh?
I was just about to start studying, so I turned on some music. Pop Musik came on and I got to thinking about you.
Well, I'm in college now. I live in Atlanta which has been a big change, but I like it so far. I got my nose pierced, but I'm sure you knew that. I imagined you watching and laughing at me as I asked the man if the felt tip marker was the needle prick.
I have a few new friends, but I want to make more. I'm sure you would be on edge with me being so far from home, but I've got plenty of police officers around and Mr.Bobby, so I'm all set. You would love it here. There are so many places to ride the motorcycle and so much stuff going on during the weekend, like I went to a Braves game on Saturday. It was so cool! This weekend, I'm going to check out this park near by with a super long nature trail. I want to find a place to go in the fall so...
Well, let me get back to studying. I'll talk to you soon. I love you, always.
P.S. I noticed all the red cardinals. Thanks for them.

Michael, nine years ago today at 3:00 a.m. I got the call that you were no longer with us. This is the saddest day of the year for me. Still remember all of the silly things you did, all of the goals you accomplished, and the long phone calls a couple of times a year.
Love you,
Mom

Nine years. Nine birthdays have passed without you. Nine Christmas mornings have come and gone. We still miss you so much. Some times are harder than others. Recently found myself telling your nieces about how we would embarrass Mom by "moo"ing put the car windows at stop lights and then ducking. Dad passed away earlier this year so you've got someone else up there with you.
Keep watching over your brothers and sisters in blue. Love you a bushel and a peck.

Well nothing has changed, still miss you so much. I wish every day that i would wake up and find that it was all just a horrible dream. I have so many mixed emotions about thing coming up in the near future and could use your help. Nine years, boy how time flys. I think about where I would be today if you were still here, thing would be so different. Where would we be flying off to in you helicopter? I know God had different plans and we will one day be back together. Until then know I love and miss you always.

Happy Birthday Michael! I know if you were here you'd be giving me flack about hitting 50 later this year. (But,then again, you'd be turning 52 today so I'd just give it back.) :) Keep watching over your brothers and sisters in blue. Love you and miss you!

Hey Daddy,
God, do I miss you. I haven't been on in a while, but I think about you all the time. Recently I've been looking at colleges and trying to plan out what my plan is after high school and it's hard. Really hard actually. Mommy doesn't really help much. She tries, but ultimately she says I can do whatever I want. I know if you were still here you could give it to me straight and help me think about all my options. I don't really know if I'm ready to move out on my own or if I need to put myself out there and try being on my own after high school. Some days I feel like I could do it, and others I feel like I'm still only 16 and need to chill out and not try to act so grown up. I guess I have some time to figure it out, but it's a lot to worry about until then.
Anyway, I was just writing this crazy 6 page essay and I got frustrated and started thinking of how frustrating you were. Haha! I love you anyway.
Love Booger Butt

Tonight was our Collier County Law Enforcement Memorial service. Angela, as CCSO Supervisor of Victim and Senior Advocacy Unit, has been in charge of organizing the service for the past several years, and tonight she was the Guest Speaker at the request of our Sheriff. She spoke from both the side of a victim advocate as well as from the side of one who has lost her deputy brother. You'd have been proud of her. BTW, she mentioned your use of the Pringle can radar. :-)
Love you,
Mom

Hey Daddy,
It's almost the end of my sophomore school year.I am passing, but not as well as you probably would have wanted.
It's almost your birthday...you'll be 51 this year. Old man! I will miss spending it with you out at the range.
Love you. Meg

Yesterday was the 7th sad anniversary of losing you. The saddest day of the year and it still hurts just as much as it did those many years ago. Love and miss you.

Thinking of you today - seven years has gone by so quickly. Hard to believe it has been that long already. Hard to believe how much it still hurts knowing my only brother is no longer around. Love you a bushel and a peck! Keep watching over your brothers and sisters in blue!

I sent Megan a photo album with quite a few pictures of you that I had gathered from various albums around the house and some I'd taken from frames or packages of photos. She said she was glad to have them since she had very few from when you were little. I'm so thankful that I had the pictures to share. I'll also make up an album for Shawn. It was fun for me to remember when you were still home.

Got a really nice, long letter from Shawn yesterday. So glad to finally have gotten his address, but wish he had made better choices. I'll keep in touch with him; watch over him and give him the guidance he didn't get after you were gone. Love and miss you.

Thinking about you and Bobby. Tonight will be 1 year since his accident. Boy how time flies. Wish you were here. They say it gets easier but I have to disagree. I miss you more now than ever. Think about where we would be in life and you would have you helicopter by now. Miss you. Love Always

Hey Dad,
I cannot stop thinking about you today. I miss you so much and wish you were here. My one year anniversary is coming up soon, I wish you could have been there to walk me down the isle. My son, Kaleb, is now two months old. I wish you could meet your grandchildren and there father. I wish I could have your help and guidance, your love most of all. God i miss you. I want my father so bad, I just want to get a hug and tell you that I love you.

Happy 50th Michael! If you were here, you would have received an"Over-The-Hill" card and I would've yanked your chain a bit about being old. :o)
Love you and miss you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

While gardening today, the song Ballad of the Green Beret kept going through my mind. I'm sure you'd recognize that song, and probably sang it while you were in the Army chorus. Of course, it made me think of our family's Green Beret--that was a true accomplishment, son. Love you.
