I am missing you so much. Not a single day has passed since you left us that I have not thought about that day. Those memories will be burned in my minde forever. I don't think I will ever get past my grief. Some days are better than others, but my heart still feels so heavy.

Sadly, I did not get to meet you but I do know how proud you would be of your family and the legacy that they have created for you. Wonderful people who turned overwhelming grief and sadness into a foundation to carry on your life's work of helping others. Rarely have I met such brave and giving people as your parents and I count myself lucky to know your story and have the opportunity to participate in your foundation's events. You are so loved and remembered, rest in peace.

I am having such a hard time lately. I have been consumed by your loss. I am missing you so much and wish I could here your voice again. If only we could turn back time! I find myself trying to remember what your voice sounds like and your laugh. My memories will never fade!

They say time heals all, but I miss you today as I did when we lost you three years ago. Not a single day passes that I don't think of you and miss you so much. I dream about you often and that gives me peace. I know you are still with me and will continue to watch over me as you did when you were here. I love you!

Drew,
I so need to talk to you, things are messed up. The long hot days of summer. I think everyone is ready for Fall. We could use some rain. I miss you. Watch over me, as I know you do all of us.

Drew,
It's been a long week, I just got back from Austin, training class. I took time out to go to the Memorial Wall, it was beautiful. I found every ones name. Then yours. I sat and brushed the cold marbled and the warmth of your smile filled my heart. Then the tears. It's beautiful there, the day almost done, no one around, stillness. I miss you, watch over me. Strength. me

Two years have passed and I know those that love you dearly have thought of you on every one of those days. You have not been forgotten as true heroes never dies. Continue to keep watch over all of your loved ones.

Three years today and it has not got any easier. I miss you everyday brother but I know your watching over all of us who serve. The other day I found the sheet of paper that you and the rest of the shift signed as a joke for me "F-Bombs Baby". It made me smile cause I can still hear your voice saying that to me when I would get mad. Miss you man.
