I had the honor of meeting some of your family today. There were many kind words spoken about you. Even though I never had the pleasure of meeting you, I will forever be grateful for your service to the community. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 37th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service.

I pray for solace for all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Stephanie, you are in my heart's embrace today.
Rest In Peace.

As my career's end is coming closer, I decided to check and find those who had lost their lives during the year that I was hired. While it's been many years since your passing, I'm sure those you left behind and those whom with you served with distinction have kept you alive in their memories. Thank you for your service and for looking out for us who continue in our chosen profession. Rest in peace Officer Manley.

Ronnie, After all these years I still miss having you in my life you were my friend since I was 13 years old. You were everything to me and all I ever loved. I raised our 3 children without you, while trying to instill your values into their lives. How they missed you tucking them into bed at night and reading them their bedtime stories, and taking them for horsie rides on your back. Our children are now grown with children of their own, you have 7 beautiful grandchildren. Ronnie, Robin and Gina have done an excelent job of raising their children you would be very proud. I which they would have known you and known what a wonderful man you truly were. I will be buried with you when my time is here, I will be back in your arms once more. Love Stephanie
