Reflections for Detective Troy Lamont Chesley, Sr.
Troy, I know you were proud watching Steve escort your mom to the Wreath yesterday. I hope that this past week has helped your family and friends move closer to healing. Keep a watch out over your brothers & sisters in Blue. Your missed, but you'll always be remembered, especially as long as Steve's around! Rest in Peace Brother.

Troy-
It's Brandy. I think of you often, very often. I see Troy and Tray and I think Lord, if Gina and Troy were here..how happy we'd all be. It's unbelievably burdensome with out you two, and I know that you see it. Kevin and I often talk about the way things use to be. We miss you much; life is not the same. I know you are looking down on us and fighting to make a mark. You loved your "peace". I know you are still as strong as you were here in the flesh. So please....take that strength and maintain us all in your spiritual relm. Tell Gina, Butch, and the rest, we love them and we're missing you all, dearly.

So much has changed in this past year for me but one thing that hasn't changed is my feelings for you. I think about you and sometimes I have to do a double take when I think I see you. My mind knows it isn't you but my heart wants it to be you so bad. I am at a loss for words because there is so much I can say but not enough time or space to say it. I LOVE YOU and I will continue to pray for your family and friends.

Troy,
It's been some time now since I last visited here to talk to you. It's been over a year now, and when that year came around, it was really hard. I know there is no excuse to keep me from visiting, but like so many others, it's so hard when you come on here and listen to all of the wonderful things people have to say about you. It is such a great comfort to know that others love you just as much as I do. I still miss our times together and our conversations. Nobody could ever make me smile the way that you did. You are a wonderful friend that I will never forget that. I still wonder what it must have been like for you going through the pain you must have been feeling, and it hurts so much to think about it. Sometimes I just want to go out for a drink, and I want to pick up the phone to call you, but you aren't there. I know that you are somewhere watching over me, and my once peace is knowing that one day I'll see you again. Until the next time, know that I Love You and constantly think about you BOB~lol...remember that? I certainly do! You will forever be missed!

I can not believe that its been a whole entire year since you left us. I think about you often and still think how senseless this all is. Im still driving crazy and everytime Im on 695 I hear your voice telling me to "Just Drive!!!" that was soooo funny. And although this tatoo was not meant for you eve though you thought it was just a coincidence(hahhahaha), when I look at it and think of you. Hopefully you are resting in peace but I know everyone wishes you were here. And my mother reminded me that this date was coming. You are missed!!!!!

1 yr has come and gone, the smile, the jokes, and an empty feeling of sorrow is still here. Time heals all wounds, except the memories of a fallen comrade. Men like Troy, far and few, but God only knows he took a great one, please keep continue to watch over us.

Troy,
Just want to let you know that I am thinking about you and your family on this terrible day. My brother-in-law, Reading, Pennsylvania Police Officer Scott A. Wertz was killed August 6, 2006 chasing an armed suspect. My family and I know the pain and loss your family is going through. It is not easy and still doesn't seem real. Keep watching over us down here as we keep the thin blue line with thoughts of you. The Police Unity Tour is gearing up again for the 2008 Police Week activities. I will be riding with Virginia Chapter IV in your memory as well as Lou Nanna and the chapter he is attached to. You will never be forgotten....
Rest easy Troy, we have the watch......

It has only been a year and it seems like a life time. The last time I talked to you is still embedded in my mind and it probably always will be. There are so many things I could say, but you and everyone else already know how I feel, felt and will always feel about you. I will always LOVE, MISS, and CARE about you. I will always continue to pray for your friends and family.

WELL I GUESS THATS WHAT BROTHERS ARE FOR. MAN, I LOOKED AT A FEW OLD CHRISTMAS PICTURES FROM 1977 WHEN WE GOT A TREE FULL OF TOYS , AND REMEMBER ALL OF MY STUFF WAS BLUE , AND YOURS WAS RED. EVEN DOWN TO OUR ROBES. THATS THE YEAR WE GOT THE GREEN MACHINES. BOY THOSE WERE THE DAYS. I ALWAYS LOOK BACK WHEN YOU , TONY, ME , AND JAMES SAT ON MY PORCH AND TALK ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES WE HAD, AND HOW WE WOULD CONTINUE TO HAVE THOSE DAYS WHEN WE GET OLD. WELL TONY STILL COMES OVER AND DOES THAT. HE STILL TRIP WHEN YOU SAID WE BANKED YOU IN THE BEDROOM. MAN THAT WAS FUNNY. ONLY IF YOUR FRIENDS COULD LIVE MY LIFE THEY WOULD SEE HOW SPECIAL OF A BROTHER YOU REALLY WERE. I TRY TO GET PAST ALL OF THIS BUT TROY, ITS HARD , ITS REAL HARD, IT LIKE YESTERDAY I TALKED TO YOU , SAW YOU , AND SHOOK YOUR HAND. TROY I REALLY MISS HAVING MY BROTHER AROUND, BUTI LOOK AT THE KIDS AND ALL I SEE IS YOU , A LITTLE BIT OF TROY IN ALL OF THEM , ITS LIKE THEY SPLIT YOU IN 5 DIFFERENT WAYS.

I try not to look at this page too often because every time I read other people's reflections of you and think of my own personal memories of you, it makes me sad. I just know that I miss you dearly and I hope you are watching over me. I love you, i miss you and I will always continue to pray for your friends and family.

Troy,
I know it's been a minute since I've left a message but I talk to you daily! I wear your memorial band day and night and will continue to until we meet again! I also have a memorial set up in my house in honor of you. Remember when I graduated from the police academy an we took a picture together? I have that along with some other things taht remind me of you! As you know our birthdays have come and gone and man was it rough!!Being two days apart brought us even closer as we grew up. Even as adults I would always know that you would be the first person to call me on the 27th at 12 midnight to wish me happy birthday and I would do the same for you. I found myself waiting for that phone call until I fell asleep! Man it was rough and still is! But I did come and visit you on your day. I cried out loud and continued to ask GOD "WHY". Mo came out a couple of minutes after me and we just couldn't believe that we were talking to you in this way. We should have been making plans to hang later to celebrate our birthdays like usual. I went to dinner with moms, van and eveyone else that night but had to leave earlier cause of work but I had to be there!Well, I'll talk to you soon and always remember I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU DEARLY!!!!!!!
