Jason, A year ago yesterday was the day when everything happened. It was also Memorial day. I was thinking about you this whole weekend. I know this was hard for your family. And their in my heart and prayers. We miss you here. I wore the shirt with your name on the back in a badge to school today. =] Its my favorite shirt. I just wanted to let you know that i was thinking about you and your family.

Its been a year and this is the first time I could actually bring myself to type something in here. We went riding yesterday and for much of the ride my thoughts kept wandering back to all the times we used to ride together and how every time we passed under a bridge we would rev and crack our pipes. Brought a smile to my face and I tried to keep up the tradition as often as I could. It was a great day and a nice ride, wish you could have been there with us in person instead of just in spirit. We really miss you man. Please watch over us and keep us all safe.

A year has passed and I just wanted to thank you for your service and example. My little daughter and I stopped by your grave today and it was obvious from the flags and flowers many did too. She remembers you Jay... She revealed to me while we were planting a flag that late at night when she cant sleep occasionally she talks to you. I was speechless for a moment and then smiled... I bet you love that and I know she does too. God bless you Jason and thank you for all the help then and now!

Law Enforcenment personnel spend so much time dealing with individuals who are not receiving adequate mental health treatment.

Worse - so many of us become victims to the senseless violence displayed by such individuals.

Officer West, May Your Soul Rest - In - Peace.

One year has passed and I'm sure everyone is hurting today. We are all thinking of you. I have said several prayers for you, your family, and CHPD brothers on this day. We all miss you and are thinking of you. Rest in peace brother. Look out for us as we continue the fight!

J,
It's been one year today since you were taken from us. Time passes quickly, but you will never be forgotten. I did not get a chance to make it down to the memorial this year, but you and your family are in my prayers often.

A year has already gone by, it feels like just yesterday. I remember like it was yesterday. Our night ride on Tuesday. You rode with me home so I wasn't alone. Our conversation about your vacation, wanting to go to Cedar Point, and riding. You were going to celebrate with me and I couldn't wait to spend that time with you. I was so excited. I didn't call you when I should have, and it was too late. I am so sorry Jason. I prayed that it wasn't true. Thank you for all the wonderful memeories. I miss you so much. I will see you soon. I love you Jason....

The dedication ceremony for the new Cleveland Heights Police Memorial honoring Officer Jason West and the other 2 officers who lost their lives in the line of duty will be at 1 pm on Sunday June 1st in front of Cleveland Heights City Hall. Please attend this special event honoring Jason. He was a dedicated officer who gave his life protecting our community. So many miss him deeply.

Hey buddy, haven't talked in a while. I'm doing ok. I wanted you to know how much it meant to me that you took me under your wing when i was lost. It took me a while to figure out why you did and the more people I meet that know you or just talking about you with the girls it's pretty clear. The boy's are getting big and it scares the hell out of me. Charlie was talking about you a couple weeks ago and it made me proud. I never thought I would be happy again after the divorce and all but I am. I met a girl at work and she's way out of my leauge but for some reason she likes me( by the way you would think she's hot). We've been seeing each other for a while but taking things really slow. I finally feel like my self again but I miss the hell out of you. I wish I could hear you're advice when I need it. I try to talk to the guy's but it's different now. I was talking to mary and we wish we could have things back the way they were.I try to keep the guy's together but they're still hurting pretty bad, I'll always be there though, just like you were for all of us. I love you like a brother and like I said, miss you alot. Rest in peace brother.

Jason,
Hey it's Melissa. I just wanted to stop by and tell you that I met your family Friday! Your mom was so nice . You niece, Hollie was to cute ! It was such an honor to meet them. I went to the memorial with my daddy. It was such a nice ceremony. I got two new shirts with your name on them. =] And my daddy got me dog tags with your initials and badge number. I am going to hang it in my car ! I just wanted to thank you again for everything. Your never forgotten. This memorial day you and your family will be in my heart. My dad told me that he is going to take me on a bike ride to your parents house !! I am very excited !

I hate coming home now that you're not here. It just isn't the same. Every time I drive into Cleveland Hts. my car wants to go to your house. I miss you so much - but I know that you're with me and everyone who loves and misses you every day. This whole world seems empty without you.

Hi Jason, not a day goes by when I don't think of you and now your one year anniversary is coming up soon. It will be a dark day at CHPD, so many people have not forgotten you. You will always be in my heart. We went to Guns and Hoses this year, and laughed about how much fun we had with you a few years ago; especially on the ride home. We are going to DC this year to honor you, but I wish we didn't have to go. The world lost a fine officer, but a finer man. You are one of my heros Jason and we will see each other again. Love you Jason.

Jason. The one year is coming up. It is going to be very hard on everyone. Even the people who didn't know you. Not a day goes by that i don't think about that night. I can not wait to go out on the bike this summer with my dad. I wish I could go to the service in D.C but i can't. You will be in my heart though and always am. I want to say thank you for protecting all the Clevland Heights Police Officers still. I know your up there watching down on us and protecting everyone. I found a video in your memory that i put on my page. I watch it every day and it it makes me think. Jason we miss you down here and can't wait to see you one day. I know my dad thinks about you and your in his heart. We love you. And God Bless your family and friends. I know its gotta be rough on them. Happy late birthday I couldn't get on here in time. I hope to get out to the cemetary when the weather gets nice. Your in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for protecting the innocent. People may look down on police but not me. I look up to them. I truely know how hard it is. The long shifts that may not end when they should, The violence and the crime, The being away from your family for holidays. And thats why I thank every police officer out there. Especially you Jason. Watch over everyone please ? I keep your card in my wallet and your pictures and card on my wall. It reminds me that you never know what could happen. My father and I are alot closer now. I have you to thank for that. My dad truely is my hero and so are you.
Forever in my heart. 332.You put your life upon the line each day Being the unseen hero in every way
You do your job and do it well keeping everyone safe at night.
