Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Dad,

40+ years has passed but it seems like it was just yesterday. For the brief time I had you, you taught me so much. The love and friendship you gave me always made me feel special and is something that I always hold close to my heart. I'll never forget our ice cream dates and calling Mom a chicken while we were updated down clacking away upside down on that roller coaster. I still have my chair you redid, your handprint is still there in the paint! There's been some challenges but I want you to know I'm doing my best in integrity and in my own way of serving to make you proud. I wear my memorial bracelet everyday with your name on it on my left wrist because it is closer to my heart. My heart aches whenever I see another from the blue family paid the ultimate sacrifice. I know so deep what the pain feels like for their family. I pray for each of our officers and their families daily. No one should ever have to feel that type of pain. I am so grateful for all the comments people have posted over the years here in regards to you and I thank them each with my whole heart for taking the time out to post. I love you always. Your daughter, Sandy

To who is my father-in-law:
I wish that I would have been able to meet you, but I know that you see who I am and what I have been through. I know you are looking out after my momma in heaven and I know that you would be proud of me for doing my best to take care of Sandra, your daughter and would do anything I can for your son Ron and your wife you left behind, Beverly. I know at times, you are around in spirit and thank you for looking out for me.

Dad,
We think of you always and know your watching over us!
Soon I'll be getting married and there will be a yellow carnation there in your honor. The future husband and I have a feeling you and his mother there had something to do with this!
You'll never be forgotten and I am sure God enjoys your humor!
Thanks for watching over us ALWAYS!
Love you!

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 29th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service.

The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.
