KJ, you will not ever be forgotten, your laugh, honor, or your sacrifice. I ran across a painting of a van pulled over by a SC Trooper with an Angel hovering over keeping watch, I thought of you when I saw it. But you were the Angel watching over the Trooper. I look at it often. It’s been many years since the day the phone rang with Trooper Proctor telling me you were taken from us but feels like yesterday for most of us. Keep those shoes shined like I know you will for one day we all will be with you again.

It takes a certain type of person to enter a line of work that you know once you get dressed for work you are looked at as a hero to some, but to the larger group a threat and as a person they dont want around and want to cause you harm. But everyday we do it because its what we choose and what we want to do for ourselves, our family, our fellow officer, and for the public. You Sir are my hero for the life you lived and from reading other reflections the family you raised. I can't say I understand what your family feels or the South Carolina Highway Patrol because thankfully I havent had to encounter that, but I hope your son know's that he to is a Hero in my eyes for living his life and becoming a LEO himself. I truly believe thats a heroic act and I want to Thank You both for the job you do and fighting the fight. Trooper Johnson watch over us as we continue the battle here and I will see you on the other side.

Jeff, we think and talk about you always. I want to thank you for being there for me during my husband's near fatal(on duty) car accident. You were always at the hospital at the right time. You showed me "the ropes" on how to handle David's case. I was 2 1/2 weeks into recovery of a very serious surgery. I was sick as a dog and wasn't supposed to leave my bed. You were there for us in everyway. You would pick me up at my home and drive me to the hospital so I could be with Dave. Missy was always shocked when she heard that you had spent that much time in ANY hospital. She said you didn't like hospitals. But you were there for your buddy. It takes a lot for my hubby to trust people and consider them "real" friends. But, you and him created a very, very close bond. It was strong & real. Jeff, I remember the day that you called me at work. You were putting together a surprise get together for David at O' Charley's Restaurant. That was about six months after the accident. That night was the very first time that my husband smiled since the night off the accident. You called me again at work. It was about a month & a couple weeks later. You were setting up another surprise party for my husband. unfortunately, that 2nd surprise party never came to be.
I'm glad that I called him often to tell him how very grateful I am for all he has done to help out David Sr, David Jr. and during these difficult times. Hope 2 meet again....well, not2 soon. We love and miss you.

9 years today dad, I cannot believe it has been this long. As I sit here writing you I have so much to say with not enough space to write. There isn't a day that goes by that you don't cross my mind, or a day I get in uniform that I don't think about and you and pray you look over me. I love you dad and I hope you meet me at the gates when its my time to come, until then look over us.
