Officer Down Memorial Page

Merry Christmas, Robbie. I shall always remember how you could correctly guess the contents of any Christmas package no matter how well disguised it might have been. We loved our Christmases with you and remember you again this year. Five years of missing you.
Chaytor's progress is good: he is a joy to so many people and he always knows you are his daddy.
We miss you.

Five years? Yes, five years and yet your presence is here as strong as ever-if not stronger, Robbie.
Your gifts of strength, helpfullness, loyalty shine in our memory.
Your son, Chaytor, keeps you alive in his physical appearance and the way he tilts his head and grins.
All of us have been strengthened by your involvement in our lives, Robbie.
Rest in peace-we miss you but hope to live lives that honor you.

Robbie,

We remember you today. We remember the wonderful Dad you were. The sweet husband you were. The funny brother you were. The dedicated son you were. The brave deputy you were. We don't know the reasons why God took you so early. But, what we do know is that God had a plan. If you look down at your beautiful family today, you will see how much love they have in their life. And although we'll never forget the special place you had in our lives, we know God had special plans for you as well as those he left behind.

Hope you're resting well and watching from above!

Lots of love,
Tiffany

Robbie,

I can't believe it's been 5 years. I remember that night like it was yesterday. I miss you just as much now as I did then.

Hi Rob,

Saw your mom the other day. She looks good despite not having you and your dad here with her. You and Charlie keep an eye on her, ok?

Miss you still Robbie:(

Hard to believe it has been four years. It feels like yesterday. Those who have been here for awhile still joke and laugh about you and all the smiles you brought. I wish the new people had gotten a chance to meet you. I've overcome the anger and "what if's." The sadness is still there time to time, but each year seems to get better by remembering the good times you shared with us all. You will never be forgotten in my heart. You were one of the finest individuals I have ever met. At the end of the day, your passing created new laws for future families who have to deal with similar circumstances. To me, I feel you had something to do with that. The pursuit of justice and to help the less forunate. That is what I remember you by. Rest easy my friend, and continue to watch over the brothers in brown and the thin blue line.

Hey Robbie it's Will. Got a new truck not to long ago and when I put the sticker on it I remembered all the grief you gave me over the last one. Wish you were still here!

Will. P.S. This is already lifted!!

Four years today. Some people say "WOW, it's only been four, seems like yesterday." For us, it seems like forever. I always think about that night, I remember what we ate for dinner, I remember going to see the house being built with Mom and Dad and passing you on 60. That was the last time I saw you.
The days after your accident dwell most with me. I was in shock. Pulled between seeing friends and family that I hadn't seen in a long time and trying to accept that you were gone. It was odd. One minute I was crying and the next I would be happy to see everyone. It took a long time for my head and heart to get that you were really gone; not just at National Guard training or a VT game for the weekend.
A lot has changed since then. I know you are watching us from above. I know you would be happy that Chaytor and I have found a wonderful man who will be a great father to Chaytor and a wonderful husband to me. Martin respects you so much. you and he would have been good friends down here. So, without disrespecting you, I know you bless our new life. We think of you daily. Martin and I talk with Chaytor about you and he remembers you vividly. He always will. You're spirit will never die in him.
Miss you and love you,
Karen

Four long years...still thinking of you

It's a sky blue, picture postcard Sunday and they're playing baseball at The Robbie Green Memorial Softball Tournament-proceeds are going to Anthony & Amien Dulio's daughter, Allie, who is fighting cancer at age 6! Just another one of those times we see evil or tragedy beget some beautiful human responses. Cannot believe it's been 4 years tomorrow, Robbie: Father Lewis met us at the church door this morning with "We are praying for Robbie Green and his family/your family". He wasn't even here in 2006, Robbie, but the love folks have for you is still alive and spreading. We miss you and see you in Chaytor often-he looks just like you!

Karen just said Chaytor was riding a broom today, pretending to be a witch, he is turning into a fine young man. Still thinking of you brother, God bless!

I was thinking about the old days growing up in Holly Hills today and I can't do that without thinking of you.
I know that you are walking and working with Jesus but I still feel sad that you are not here on Earth with us. When I heard about your dad, I smiled knowing he would be with you. We all keep your Mom in our prayers.

Robbie-3 years-so hard to believe. In many ways they've been long, long, long and in others, it seems as if the officers were just at our door.
Your father is now with you-I know that as well as I know anything I've ever known. How we all miss both of you-and will continue to do so. Losing your dad this week has been so hard-God's "plan" sure isn't easy to figure out so I don't try but I can only offer up any pain to Him in gratutide for the gifts He has given us-which include sharing your's and your father's lives.
You'd be so delighted with Chaytor ("don't be proud" he tells us but he's tickled that we are so proud of him as he achieves more and more every day). Thursday night Roy set up the T-ball set I found (half off at the pharmacy!) and lo and behold the child really got into it! He has Karen, Roy and me --well he coached us into--saying "Run Chaytor, run!" and it was so appropriate that as we waited for God in his mercy to bring your dad to you and to His Holy Side, Chaytor was playing baseball!!!
Tomorrow we again go to PHS auditorium for another Green funeral: of course the whole county PLUS other Virginians and Dixie League localities will be there to celebrate your father's amazing life. You were a perfect specimen of living his values and tomorrow we will celebrate all of your dad's virtues.
Please continue to be the guardian angel to your mom: I promise you I will work hard to keep Jean knowing she is loved by many-
Goodnight our hero-and give your dad our best,
mary

Robbie,

This is my fist time writing a reflection. I have always wanted to, but just couldn’t find the words that expressed how I feel. I think about you OFTEN! Especially today, the day your Dad is called home to be with you. I know I don’t need to tell you this, but your Dad was a one of a kind. A truly amazing Man. There was no wonder you turned out to be who you were. And now I know Chaytor will fill the shoes of his WONDERFUL Father and Grandfather. Charlie, Sr. will be missed as much as we all miss you. The only comfort for me is knowing you two are now together again! With much LOVE to all your family and friends!! God Bless!!

Ps. I still keep candy in my desk drawer, when I have some missing I think of you! :-)

Hi Rob. I know you already know your daddy's gone to heaven and standing right beside you. He must be so happy to finally see you again. Please look over your mama, little Charlie and Jason right now. I hope they can find some comfort knowing you two are together.

3 years. seems longer and only yesterday at the same time. We miss you. wonder what our lives would have been like if you were still here. Know that you are in my mind and heart everyday. Chaytor and I talk about you often. He remembers so much of you and I will always keep that alive in him. He remembered that we use to sing him "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" and even ran upstairs to get the teddy bear the song goes with. He talks about our old house and remembers all the details, even things I forgot.
Love you, always, Your Wife, Karen.
