Thinking about you, it's approaching Memorial Day, so we went to the cemetery today. Your grave site is covered with things as always. It's obvious that you were and are very loved. Your dad was there mowing. He spends a lot of time there in general. I think you took a piece of all of our hearts when you left. So many things going on in life but you are still thought of, remembered and loved. You were so proud to be a Marine; I loved your stories. Thank you for your service. I'll always carry you in my heart.

I was thinking about Jerry and what a good honest person, he was. I think about him several times through out the year. I thought I would post on his memorial wall, just out of respect. Rest in peace brother.

JANUARY 20, 1915:
Jerry, it's been over 5 years and I still miss you every day.
you are always in my thoughts and my heart.
The Holidays are not the same without you. I think of so
many things that you have said and done, and it's hard to
believe that I won't hear them anymore. I miss the sound
of your voice, your laugh and your stories.
Some friends of ours, you never met them are in Titusville
and they went to the Police Hall of Fame and Museum, they
took pictures of the wall with your name on it and e-mailed
them to Pastor Art, I'm anxious to see them.
I love you and always will.
Till I see you again, love Mom
Beverly Jones,

Happy birthday!!! I wish with all my heart that we could be celebrating together. I often wonder where we would be in our lives. So many plans & dreams we looked forward to in our future. I try so hard not to dwell. I feel like I'm constantly taking a few steps forward & a few steps back. I really don't know what's "right" with how to get my life moving forward and anticipating the future. It really doesn't help that people like to discuss everything I do and come up with some things that aren't even true. We didnt choose for this to happen, and I know you wouldn't want me stuck in limbo. You are missed more than you could ever imagine. Time doesnt heal the wounds it only makes it easier to cope. You are never forgotten. im so thankful for you & your family.
Love always

Sweetheart, it doesn't seem possible that it has been five years since you left us. We miss you so much. There has
been so much happen since I last wrote to you. Grandpa
Shepherd passed away January 9th. I'm sure you already
knew that. Chris and Erica lost twins in January also. Aunt Masel, Aunt Ola, and Aunt Madalene went home to be with
the Lord. On the 13th. several of your officer friends came to the cemetery and brought flowers. Jeffrey prayed the most beautiful prayer. Then the police department
unveiled the "Wall of Honor". with your likeness in the center. There will be plaques of former officers placed on the wall as well. Eric Johnson, Chief Webster. Mayor Jones
and your brother Mike spoke. There was a reception afterwards. It was very nice.
In November will be the parole hearing for Natasha Light,
We will be there as we were last year. I have forgiven her, because I knew that as a Christian I had to do that for my own healing, I will never forget what she and Brian Good took from us. I'm not sure if she will be paroled, I just want her to admit to what she did, instead blaming it on
drugs and Brian Good. We love you so very much, we miss you every day and will never get over losing you.
Love, Mom
Oh, I forgot to tell you, Chris and Erica are expecting in
December, it's a little girl, Zoe Ireland Jones

I can't believe it has been 5 years the lord called you home. I think about you every single day. There is not a day goes by that someone ask me about you or how is everyone doing. You are sadly missed by every one. Tell Grandpa Shepherd that we are doing ok and we all said hi.
Love and Miss you

You're always in my thoughts, but I'm thinking of you extra today. 7.26.08 <3!! You are always loved and missed. Time eases the pain but there are always wounds. So many things I wish we had the opportunity to experience together. If I could change the outcome, I would in a heart beat. Sadly, if I could replay and go back to before your death, I'd go through all of the pain and hurt just to really soak up that time and make the very best of it. You're always in my heart <3

I heard your story today..I attended the Fallen West Virginia Law Enforcement Officers Memorial today with some of my fellow co-workers, and the man who spoke of you Lt. Eric Johnson spoke beautiful, heart felt words about you. Thank you for your sacrifice, although the circumstances were not the best, I still thank you and remember you. I'm thankful I was able to learn your story today.
