Just stopping in to say hello. Its hard to believe that in 4 short months it will be a year that we all lost such an amazing person. Eric you are thought of everyday. The streets of Madison are definitely not the same without you. So much had happened in the last 8 months. Miss you my friend

It still shocks me that you are no longer with us. I mean i wouldn't want it to be anyone at all. But never in a million years did it cross my mind it was you. From the moment i woke up with you passing my house so early that fateful morning to all the police and emergency vehicles heading down to Peeler Park, to seeing the news that an officer was missing. Not once did it cross my mind it could have been you. Then to learn it was, i went in to shock. Then it came to me that if it was anyone it would be you, only because you did your job to the fullest. That was the man that you were.
You had a passion for what you did, from the many nights when we had to call you to S&S to come rescue us from some drunk person, to rescuing us from an abusive spouse, you never judged. We miss you Eric Mumaw

Its been 6 months today since Madison/Nashville lost a hero. You were truly one of a kind. When i got up this morning i was reflecting back on your memorial service, what an emotional and amazing tribute. You truly were our hero. Officers from all over the country were there to show support. You are missed more than you know. Soon Juli's trial will be starting, BO to the grand jury for Agg. Vehicular Homicide. I know you were just doing your job but you would still be here if it weren't for her stupidity. Miss you Eric Mumaw

Yesterday made 5 months since you left us. I go down to Peeler Park several times a week just to check and make sure your memorial cross is still there. I think about you all the time and the impact you had on my life. You were such a caring person. It is still hard to believe it was you. Miss you my friend

Its been 4 months today. Its still hard to believe that your gone. What they say is true though, the pain eases up as time goes by but you never forget.How could we forget. I was just waking up as you were going past my house. It never crossed my mind that it could have been you. You now have my Best-friend Cassandra and my Uncle Bobby up there with you. Now i know he is probably flying across that sky on his motorcycle, if you can get him to stop for a minute please give him a hug for me. And Cassandra too. I miss you all very much.

I know that you are looking down on us all and smiling at the love shown for you. When people see me wearing your pin they always compliment how wonderful of a person and officer you were. You will always be remembered for the impact you had on so many people, myself included. When i met you 16 yrs ago you were still new to MNPD but you couldn't tell. You loved your job and you did it well. I hope you like the cross i made for you and placed at your memorial site. I miss you Eric Mumaw.
