Hi Jerry,

I was up at the softball park in Mt. Juliet not to long ago watching Chris play and thought about all the times Chris and Blake played together at Rotary Park back in the day and how we loved to coach them. How we loved being on the Board of Directors together and working on the fields, what a great time in our lives. I'm still working at TBI and I'll be retiring next June. Just seems like yesterday that we all got started in law enforcement. I miss all the times we spent together with our kids and I wish you were here to see how well your kids are doing now. You would be very proud of them I know. Rest in Peace my Friend, and may God be with you always. Tommy

Sarg,
Yet another year goes by and I still feel lost without you. I hope you are looking down and smiling about the accomplishments that I have made, I tried to make you proud of me. I can honestly say that I would not not be where I am at today if it wasn't for your faith in me. I wish you where here to help me so much every day. Sarg, I want you to know that you are the father that I never had in my life. I tried to hold you that day on the interstate, but they wouldn't let me. Please forgive me for not holding your hand one last time, I'm so sorry. I'm a detective now and I look at your picture everyday, Ive got it pinned up in my cubicle. It was back in 98 during the Christmas parade, when you wrote me up for wearing short sleeves, I would give anything to that argument in your office again. Thanks for always believing me Sarg. I owe everything that I have to you. I cant wait to see you again.


Love,
BJ

Jerry,
It's been along time man. I didn't live up to what you expected of me man. I remember when me and you work that school bus wreck and you made me go on the bus and get everyone's name and DOB. You dog you! I love you and I miss you man. It's been a few years now and I am no longer a police officer but I think you would be proud of me Jer. I miss you. You will never know how much you affected my life. Love you brother

Has it really been five years?

I can still picture you strutting around dispatch in your freshly polished motorcycle boots with that cocky, mischievious grin.

I don't think anyone who was working there will ever be the same.

POLICE OFFICER
PHILA PA

"The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

I miss you so much jerry. i spent two weeks with you and it was the best two weks of my life man. Thank you for training me. I am sorry I didn't live up to your expectations Jerry. Everytime I see your picture I think about you. I am no longer a police officer but if you were here today I might be. I remember we worked that wreck with the school bus.

Jerry,

It's been four (4) years today since you've been gone but it still feels like yesterday when I heard the news of what happened to you and John. I know God has a plan for each and everyone of us, but I can only say , you left this earth way to soon. You had so much more to offer to adults and children alike. You are truly missed and I think about this day every year. It is the day before my birthday and it always saddens me that your gone. You were a great friend and fellow officer. I know everyone including friends, family and other fellow officers, all still miss you. Rest in Peace my Friend.

Not a day goes by that you are not remembered, thanks for you guidance while you walked this earth, please continue to watch over us, as we follow in you footsteps...Friends never forget................

Hi Jerry,

Well its been a little over three years now since you've been gone and I just wanted to let you know how much you're still on our minds. I can still remember all those times coaching, umpiring and being on the board of directors together at the park. I can still see you and Trish working on the fields getting them ready for the next game. Those were fun times to say the least. I know your family miss'es you greatly and I just want you to know, they can be very proud of you. You are an excellent example of a husband, father,class act, and a good Christian. I was looking at some FOP stuff on line today and it reminded me of everything good in this world that comes from people like you, who protect and serve our nation. You, like many before you, are a true hero to all of us. You will never be forgotten. From your friend and fellow officer. Until we meet again. God Bless. Tommy.

Jerry, wow how we all miss you so much! I can't help but think that God had prepared you for your homecoming because of the conversations we had the Sunday before. I can see and hear you sitting in that recliner talking about being ready and how Trish fussed at you for even saying such. God may have prepared you, but He sure didn't prepare any of the rest of us. You were one of the most remarkable people I have even known. I have named you a joy-bringer because that's who you were and what you did. The love you showed Katie and Nolan will forever live in their heart. I thank God for allowing you and Trish to live next door to me and touch my life in such a special way. Aimee and I still laugh and cry as we share our memories about you. I pray that the joy you bestowed to all of us will continue through us to others generation after generation. I look forward to seeing you again brother, until then we'll keep your joy going...
