Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

It's always sad when an officer falls in the line of duty, but this one stuck with me for some reason..I only lived in Indy for a few years but lived there when this young man was senselessly gunned down..I probably cried for a good while and i had never met the man before. It puts things in perspective, and re affirms my belief in the fact life is precious. I truly believe he was one of Gods angels..I donated blood and must have bought at least 50 dinners for random officers after this happened. I know his parents were/are officers and can tell you they did a fine job raising this man..Thank you for the service my friend..May you rest in peace..You gave your life so that people could live in safety and peace..That's never forgotten..

I'd like to think that you've been there for every step during my most recent journey. During the times when I've felt scared or lost, I've always been able to find some sort of hope. Maybe that's you, showing me that even though you can't hold my hand through it, you're still there. I have the opportunity now to start over, to rebuild and even reinvent myself. This is when I think of you the most and how much it means to me that I continue to move forward and to make you proud. You are very much a part of me and I'm grateful for the blessings you've sent my way. Your hand has been on each and every one of them and they are what's given me hope and helped me find my way. I will carry you in my heart everywhere I go until we meet again. I miss you so very, very much.... Love you!

To this day, I've yet to leave a reflection for you. Not because I didn't want to, but simply because it broke my heart to think that this was now the "new normal" in how we shared our time. There are so many things left unsaid and so much time that's gone to waste without you. This past year has not been about living, but more surviving and coming to terms with "fate." I love you and I miss you terribly. From your strategic knee strikes, to your sweet dimpled chin, your perfectly organized spice rack, to the momma Jo scrap books. You made my life better and I miss you like hell. Your "punk" misses your hugs and counts the days til' we meet again. I love you Dave.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY DAVID, BESIDES THE 4TH OF JULY I KNOW THIS WAS ANOTHER FAVORITE HOLIDAY OF URS BECAUSE WHAT IT MEANS. YOU WERE A VERY PATROTIC PERSON. IF YOU WERE HERE IM SURE YOU WOULD HAVE WORKED LONG HOURS AT THE TRACK AND ON YOU TIME OFF YOU WOULD BE AT A COOKOUT SOMEWHERE LAUGHING AND HAVING A GREAT TIME. NO MATTER WHAT YOU WERE DOING YOU HAD A SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND LIVED IN THE MOMENT. I MISS YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE YOU

I have been thinking a lot about you lately. With all of the negativity going on lately it is sometimes easy to get negative about the job, but when I start to get negative I think of you. We are all blessed to be able to still do the best job in the world. You were one of the best officers I have ever know and your positive hard work attitude was contagious. I see your mom from time to time she is such a strong person. I never know what to say. The whole situation breaks my heart and just makes me want to cry. You would be proud of her. Well "punk" we all miss you and your name come up often in conversations. You will never be forgotten.

I WAS SITTING IN THE CAR LISTNING TO OUR SONG "WHEN YOU SAY NOTHING AT ALL" AND THEN I GOT AN EMAIL SAYING THAT HARDY'S SENTENCING WAS APRIL 5TH. I THINK THIS WAS A SIGN FROM YOU TELLING ME THAT THIS CHAPTER IS OVER AND WE ARE GOING TO BE OK. I WILL NEVER FORGET YOU. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

On April 5th 0900 hours at Court room 6, West Wing, Judge Stoner will have Hardy’s sentencing. The sentence has been agreed upon in the plea agreement. This is a justice system formality.

This should be the final court date for Hardy. We had a meeting this morning with the Prosecutor’s office and anyone can come to this hearing. The only one’s who can speak are the names we gave her today. However, anyone can attend and anyone can submit to the court an impact statement. This statement in the form of a letter or email can be about David, about the loss of David or directed at Hardy. IF directed at Hardy, keep it civil, remember all along this has not been about Hardy but about honoring David and who we are as Officer’s.

They are to be sent to Denise Robinson, 251 E Ohio Street, Indianapolis, IN, 46204. Dropped off at her office or emailed to [email protected]. It’s our understanding the court will read them. Maybe, not out loud but they will become a part of the trial packet.
Defense counsel will receive copies of the letter’s or emails.

Anyone can write and anyone can show up for the sentencing. Hopefully, this will be our family, community and department’s final step with Hardy. However, this, will not be the final chapter of David’s legacy.
