20 years without you, your smile, your laugh, “Jackie Chan”, and so much more.

Sometimes moments sneak up on me and the pain of losing you is overwhelming. I just looked at the date and realized we would’ve been married 15 years this month. I know we would’ve made it. I wish we had been given the chance.
I miss you sounds so simple. But I do...I miss you. So much.

Officer Waters sacrificed his life in pursuit of his duties. He left behind a legacy, not the least of which is witnessed by the comments left here by his wife and family. It is obvious he is greatly missed. Thank you Michael Waters for standing tall in the Thin Blue Line.

Hey little brother,
I never forgot about you and I miss you like it was yesterday. We lost Lt. Kevin Mainhart and he was very fond of you.

Today marks the thirteen anniversary of my son's death. Memories of a God loving, sweet, happy, kind, joyful, compassionate, caring, faithful, loving son flood my soul. I love him so much, I am thankful for his life. Always on my mind, always in my heart... forever!

Missing you like always.

I always come back to visit your page. Though I did not have the privilege to have ever met you, I think of you often.

To his friends and family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. He died in the service of strangers and there is no greater definition of a hero. God speed Officer Waters. You may be gone from our sight but live on in heaven.

Another year gone, and still the first thing my husband said to me this morning was 'This is the day Mike died'. Gone but not forgotten.

Officer Michael Waters will always be in the hearts and minds of his fellow officers. Eleven years ago seems like a long time ago, but for us that knew Michael it seems like yesterday.

On Thursday, June 5, 2013, the Ceremony for the Crittenden County Fallen Officers Memorial was held. I want to express my gratitude for the efforts of the West Memphis Chamber of Commerce, and so many others involved in making this happen. This Memorial will serve as a reminder of the dedication and sacrifice some of these public servants pay. Nothing takes away the pain the family and friends suffer when a loved one dies, but it is comforting to see that others remember and care.

Mike,
My husband misses you and thinks of you all the time. Today is a sad day for him, you were too young to go! I tell him you are watching over us all the time.
Gone but not forgotten, RIP.

Heroes live forever, Officer Waters, and we will never forget. Thank you for the sacrifice you made for the citizens of West Memphis and the great state of Arkansas.

I think every year I post that I can't believe it's been *this* many years. But I really can't believe it's been 10 years. Ten years since I've seen you smile, heard your laugh, felt your arms around me...I miss you.
