Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Everything changed yet everything has stayed the same! I wish you could have met your daughter and your 6yo old granddaughter she is an amazing girl!

Two days from now life changed & it never went back to normal! Tears fill my eyes more than you would know… I can’t wait to see you again!

I know you showed my Dad the ropes up there and y’all are up there being silly!

Thank you for loving me

Keep Resting in Heaven❤️

Ryan, sometimes it seems like you've been gone forever. Other times, it seems like just yesterday that you were here and we were sitting at some T/A writing reports and laughing about some crazy person we just had to deal with. We had a lot of fun and I miss you a lot. How is it possible that it's been 31 years? I sure wish you were here and I could give you a hard time about being an old man. You'd probably still have that old red car! Rest easy, brother. You're missed by a lot of people.

I will miss my younger brother. He followed my steps into Law enforcement. I remember us two taking the police test both in DC and in PG County. I passed DC and he passed PG and we ended up on different forces but patrolling the Southern Ave line frequently seeing each other and sharing stories.
Love you and we miss you greatly..

It seems like just yesterday that we were working side by side, King 5 and King 6. You were such a good guy and taken away much too soon. I still think of you daily and wonder how different life would have been with you in it. But God had a different plan. I hope you're smiling down on your family and friends and all that we've done since you've been gone. Miss ya, kiddo!!! Rest in peace, #1813.

Your my Dad...yet I hardly know a thing about you. Like your favorite color or if you had siblings. I wonder what it would have been like if you were alive.

I just learned about this site but it is better late than never. The anniversary of your death has come and gone again, but it is still hard to believe that you are gone. You were a great friend, little brother and neighbor and I still get tears in my eyes when you cross my mind, especially when I drive down Brinkley Road (our old neighborhood). I recall the day I introduced you to my Mom while you were sitting in the parking lot of the 7-Eleven on Brinkley Rd., writing reports and waiting for your pizza to finish cooking. LOL You possessed tremendous "beat pride" and it showed by the way your T/A owners took care of you.

The midnight Thursday (new movie) premiere's @ Rivertowne Theater was loads of fun also! I always remembered to get a large bag of popcorn because I knew I would have to share with you. I enjoyed our talks and laughs and I missed hearing you say, "And I got 'em", when you cleared your calls (referring to already having your case numbers). You will remain in my heart forever little brother!

Ryan, I can't believe its been 16years that you've been gone. It wasn't until recently that I even knew this website exsisted or I would have left this a long time ago. I still hear your laugh, I still remember your Orange Car that had the stick shift in it that gave you so many fits. I remember carpooling with you and Sammy and Tiatte to and from the Police Academy. I was Proud then and still am today to have known you. I think about you often and I say Hi to You when I pass Fort Lincoln. Say Hi to Jerry Martin for me if you see him up in Heaven. I'll NEVER Forget You My Brother..........
