Reflections for Officer David Spencer Moore
I HAD A WONDERFUL DREAM ABOUT US THE OTHER NIGHT. WHEN I WOKE UP I FELT LIKE A WEIGHT WAS LIFTED OFF OF ME AND THEN IT HIT ME THAT IT WAS A DREAM AND YOU WERE NOT THERE AND I GOT THAT SICK EMPTY FEELING IN MY STOMACH. I HAVE THOUGHT OVER AND OVER ABOUT MY DREAM AND HOW GOOD IT FELT TO BE IN YOUR ARMS AGAIN. MAYBE IT WAS A SIGN FROM YOU. I HOPE SO. I MISS YOU SO MUCH DAVID AND I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART.

R.I.P. Brother in Blue. In 2007 at the World Police and Fire Games in Adelaide, Australia, I had the pleasure of meeting a number of officers from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, Indiana. I still keep in touch with some of them to this day. These friends are great people and even though I never met you, I know that you would have been a great person and a great ambassador for your Department. You will be sadly missed by your colleagues, friends and family. The streets will never be the same now that you are gone.

Just thinking about you Dave. Your family is so awesome. "Mamma Joe" has been taking care of the troops and your wonderful dad has also been taking care of everyone. I now really get why you always spoke so highly of them and allowed them to be parents to anybody that needed it. Your brothers and sisters are still mourning and those of us that worked with you and knew you will miss you forever. What an empty hole this has left in all of our hearts. We will continue to make you proud and will work knowing that you're watching over us and whispering danger signs into our ears. As always, thanks for looking out. Love you buddy!

I WISH I HAD THE CHANCE TO HAND YOU A ROSE RIGHT NOW. I REMEMBER A FEW YEARS AGO THERE WAS A DAY WE WERE BOTH KINDA BUMMED. DON'T REMEMBER WHY. BUT, I CALLED YOU TO COME MEET ME AND I GAVE YOU A SINGLE RED ROSE. YOUR FACE LIT UP BOTH FROM BEING HAPPY AND IT KIND OF SHOCKED YOU TOO. YOU SAID NO ONE HAD EVER GIVEN YOU A FLOWER BEFORE. I REMEMBER YOU LOVING IT. I WAS GLAD THAT I MADE YOUR DAY BETTER. I MISS YOU SO MUCH DAVID.

I come to the ODMP often to remember my late fiancé Dennis. Every time I come here it breaks my heart to know that yet another officer has fallen and that yet another family has to live their lives without the officer they loved. My heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved Officer Moore. Know that you are not alone in the "journey" that you walk. Should you ever need anything please don't hesitate to contact me. (The Davis Co. Sheriff's Office in Iowa will always know how to reach me. I can also be found on Face Book.) You will be in my thoughts.
From reading the reflections left for David, he sounds like he was a great man with a beautiful spirit. Those of you who knew him in life were so blessed to have been able to share in it. I hope that you will all continue to find a way to celebrate and remember David's life and the MAN that he was. Remember that David's life was about so much more than the way he died. David will continue to live on as long as we continue to remember him.
Officer Moore, thank you for helping to make this world a little safer for us all. YOU will not be forgotten. Please continue to watch over all of us as only you can. If you happen to bump into my late fiancé Dennis up there give him a big hug for me and the kids. It's been eight years and he's still very much missed and forever loved.
Wishing you brighter and better days,
Jocelyne :)

I just read your Mom's interview about going back on duty. What a woman, what a cop, what an amazing person! I'm sure you are just as proud of her as she is of you. Rest well, Brother, rest well.

WHAT GETS ME THROUGH EACH DAY ARE THE MEMORIES WE SHARED. FROM SITTING ON THE COUCH EATTING PIZZA, YOU MAKING ME BREAKFAST CHRISTMAS MORNING, LAUGHING AT EACH OTHER OVER STUPID STUFF. I THINK ABOUT U WRINKLING UP YOUR NOSE AND STICKING YOUR TOUNGE OUT AT ME. I KEEP LOOKING AT THE BEAUTIFUL GIFTS THAT YOU HAD GIVEN ME OVER THE YEARS AND THINKING ABOUT THE STORIES BEHIND THEM. YOU WERE SUCH A CARING AND LOVING PERSON. I KNOW OUR LIVES TOOK US SEPERATE WAYS BUT YOU TOLD ME THAT NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED TO MAKE SURE I CAME TO YOU BECAUSE YOU WOULD BE THERE WAITITNG FOR ME NO MATTER WHAT.WE HAD SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL AND NO MATTER WHAT WAS GOING ON IN OUR LIVES IT WAS STILL THERE. I AM GLAD I WAS ABLE TO TELL YOU THAT I LOVE YOU AND WHAT YOU MEANT TO ME A FEW MONTHS AGO. I LOOK FORWARD TO THE DAY I GET TO SEE YOU AGAIN. I LOVE YOU

I CANT BELIEVE HOW TIME FLIES. ITS BEEN A MONTH NOW. IT IS STILL SO UNREAL. YOU ARE MISSED SO MUCH BY SO MANY. I JUST HEARD PHIL VASSAR'S "LOVE IS A BEAUTIFUL THING" YOU TOLD ME THAT IS HOW YOU IMAGINED YOUR WEDDING. I WISH SO MUCH YOU WERE ABLE TO EXPERIENCE THAT. HEARING THAT SONG MADE ME SMILE AND THINK ABOUT US. YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT HUSBAND AND FATHER. YOUR DEATH HAS CHANGED SO MANY PEOPLE IN SO MANY WAYS. YOU WERE SUCH A HUMBLE MAN THAT YOU WOULD BE SUPRISED AT ALL THE THINGS PEOPLE HAVE SAID ABOUT YOU AND THE AFFECT YOU HAVE HAD ON ALL OF US. I LOVE YOU DAVID.

I keep getting on this site and looking at your picture and I still can not believe it is real. I heard that your parents placed a rose on your desk at the leadership academy that you would have been attending this week. You would have made an awesome sgt and we are in need of more like you. We need more people who are leaders and not just mangers. IMPD and indy have lost out on a Officer/Person that would have been making a positive difference for years to come. You are missed and thought about daily. We will continue to hold off the wolves. Watch over everyone.

I LOVE YOU DAVID. I CANT GET YOU OFF MY MIND. THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS I WISH I WOULD HAVE SAID TO YOU. BUT, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS I LOVE YOU AND I KNOW YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT. YOU AND I HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL. I KEEP THINKING ABOUT THE FIRST HUG YOU GAVE ME AND HOW MUCH WE WANTED TO HUG EACH OTHER BUT AT THE SAME TIME HOW NERVOUS WE WERE. THAT WAS A GREAT DAY. THAT WAS ONE OF THOSE THINGS YEARS LATER YOU AND I TALKED AND LAUGHED ABOUT. I MISS YOU SO MUCH.
