Reflections for Police Officer Anthony Alan Giniewicz

Well Dad, as it so happens, we are getting another chance at sentencing the POS that shot you. Of course he couldn't stay out of trouble long and got convicted of his 34th felony this past January. So now we can see if the California 3 strikes law will work and send him back to prison for 25 to life on May 2, 2012.
We love and miss you a lot.

I come to the ODMP often to remember my late fiance Dennis. Every time I come here it breaks my heart to know that yet another officer has fallen and that yet another family has to live their lives without the officer they loved. My heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved Officer Giniewicz. Know that you are not alone in the "journey" that you walk. Should you ever need anything please don't hesitate to contact me. (The Davis Co. Sheriff's Office in Iowa will always know how to reach me. I can also be found on Face Book.) You will be in my thoughts.

From reading the reflections left for Tony he sounds like he was a great man with a beautiful spirit. Those of you who knew him in life were so blessed to have been able to share in it. I hope that you will all continue to find a way to celebrate and remember Tony's life and the MAN that he was. Remember that Tony's life was about so much more than the way he died. Tony will continue to live on as long as we continue to remember him.

Officer Giniewicz, thank you for helping to make this world a little safer for us all. YOU will not be forgotten. Please continue to watch over all of us as only you can. If you happen to bump into my late fiance Dennis up there give him a big hug for me and the kids. It's been nine years and he's still very much missed and forever loved.

Wishing you brighter and better days,


Jocelyne :)
