Well baby, this week is "police week" and I will leave Wednesday to head to DC in honor of you, this is our 3rd year and me, mom and paul all countinue to go, mom had a beatiful wreath made and the nice message that chief wrote will be by your name too... On friday smithsburg is doing a ceremony for you in honor - they are naming part of 64 after you and the road into vetrans park will be named after you... you would be so proud. I just want you to know that you are missed by many and I just keep hoping that some day I wake up and you are back with me, I miss you so much words cant explain, I just wish I wouldnt have hung up the phone with you or that I would have been in smithsburg to be with you, my heart still aches for you everyday.... 3 yrs and it still feels like yesterday... cant wait to see you heaven someday soon.... LOVE YA

I came across your name among the many heroes on this site and wanted to stop at your page and leave a reflection. I know all too well the daily struggle your loved ones face as I also walk in their shoes. I know that they think of you every day and carry your precious memories in their hearts. Continue to watch over all of them and guide them in their daily decisions. You will never be forgotten.

Hi Chris,

As always, I find that my thoughts turn to you every single day. The smallest of things can remind me of you. You are missed more than you could ever know. You will always be a hero for those of us you left behind. I'll never understand why things turned out the way they did but I have to believe there was some reason that we will one day understand. I do know that you are watching over us until the day comes that we meet again and there is a certain level of comfort in knowing that. Love & miss you sooo much!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, just think this weekend would have been our 4 one together, I still have the pink dog you got me and I wear the necklace and earrings everyday, I still have many pictures of you in the house, I cant get rid of your stuff, I still spray your colonge every once in a while and think of you, wishing you was here!! I still wish I could have been the one to take that bullett for you, there are days that I get so mad b/c you was taken from me, why send such a great guy my way then take him from me??? And the person that did this well, I cant talk abut that either it upsets me to much. Just please promise me that when I get to heaven you will be the first one to give me a hug and kiss, I miss those things from you so much, I just wish my heart didnt hurt this much, all to hear your voice again... well babe I love you and till someday in heaven

Somewhere among the many pages of heroes at this site I came across your name and wanted to stop at your page and leave a short note. You will never be forgotten by those that love you dearly. They carry your loving memories in their hearts. The first thought they have as they awake each morning is of you and the last thought of the day before drifting off to sleep is of you. You are a true hero and heroes never die.

Chris,
You left us 2 years ago and every moment of that night is still so fresh in so many minds. You are so missed. I feel safe knowing that you are in heaven looking down and still protecting our small town. I do however wish that it never happened as it did. Chris, you will never be forgotten.

The tree is up and presents under the tree, the blue lights are in the windows and the officer down memorial flag is hanging out side to honor you to the highest!!! 2 years have come and gone and it seems like last night that I was hearing the news and heading to the hospital to be w/ you.... I know that I have said this many times but it really dont get better and missing you is so heart breaking. Just to hear your voice or to hug you or have you hold me just one more time, that time really cant come soon enough, I LOVE YOU - Till we meet in heaven

Hi Chris,

I have been thinking about you sooo much lately - even had some dreams about you. I'm not exactly sure why but it feels good to know that there is still some sort of connection between us. It will soon be two years since you left us. I can hardly believe it. Two years later you are missed just as much as you were the first day. You will never be forgotten. Please continue to keep watching over us from your home in the sky. Love & miss you!!

I have been thinking of you a lot lately; more than usual, I guess. I cried before I went to sleep last night. There’s so much I want to say to you – I wanted to say, but I didn’t. I wish I were able to go back and tell you those things that I should have said when I stayed quiet. I miss you, Chris…

Your always in my heart,

I was a delivery driver lost in his town,he stoped and asked if I was ok and to see if I needed help.He was soo nice and showed me where I made the worng turn and helped me on my way.I became friends with him and chated with him everytime I was inhis town.I told him i used to be a military cop in the navy and how much I miss my military life,and Chirs said"there is the national guard.".Ithought long and hard and next thing you know I am in the army.I had to go away for training in Oklahoma,and I garudated on the day he was killed,never got a chance to thank him for the life I got back.I am truly thankful to him for that advice,I love what I do and I will miss him,he was one of the good guys,and I will damn proud to serve hard to protect this country like he did his town.

Hi babe,
I wanted to stop by and say hello, I haven't wrote to you in awhile, I think about you everyday and still miss you like crazy...I cant believe that it will be 2 yrs before long?? I went on vacation with mom and paul to myrtle beach in september, it was great and the whole time I was wishing you was there. Your law ride is coming up here in 2 days and can you believe that if you was still here it would have been our wedding date of 1 yrs, it sucks how time flys by but I know in my heart that you are watching all to close and protecting me... I miss you baby and please hold me tight at night, love you

I had a call the other night at work that made me think about you, seems to be happening more and more. I know you were with me then, and now. I remember giving up on the job search, but your death motivated me to do what you were so passionate about and thats protecting people. So here I am. Just help me ok? You always have...
