As one of the last of the Jernigans I still have all of the photos, articles and memoribilla of the family; I share them with my son, the last Jernigan. The irony of it all is that Jack survived the island hopping campaign of the pacific as a US Marine only to lose his life as a peace officer at home.

He died eight months before I was born but my father and grandmother allowed me to know him. We have all served in my family and some have died in so doing.

What more could someone add to this memorial. True hero doesn't really do you justice.
When it came time to stand the thin blue line for your brother officers, you did it and payed the ultimate price.
I can only hope that your brother and sister officers serving in Cheyenne stand up and add to this memorial. Thank you brother officer.
