Patrolman Waverly M. Jones New York City Police Department New York Friday, May 21, 1971  Leave a Reflection  Return to Memorial  Print This Page  Continue Building Book  Page: 1 of 1

Though I never knew him, he was part of my Law Enforcement family and I will mourn this deep loss the rest of my life. My heart aches with all the losses we have suffered, and continue to suffer, through the years. God is our only peace in such incidents & our only real comfort comes from Him. May His strength, comfort & peace continue to be the sustaining force in the lives of all who knew this beloved officer; and may it somehow help to know he is not forgotten.

I said a little prayer today for Patrolman Jones and his family. He may be gone but never forgotten. He will always be a New York HERO.

Sir, you worked with my father in the NYPD. I grew up hearing stories about you and his other cop buddies. He always spoke fondly of you. He says you were a brave, and loyal man. I just began a presentation on the BLA for a history class. My father told me stories but i only now see how terrifying those days must have been. You are not forgotten! Your family will always be in my prayers.

~~~~~The Broken Chain~~~~~

We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name.~~In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.~~It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.~~You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.~~Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the Chain will link again.

To the dad and father I never met, this is your precious daugther Chandra. I never got the chance to tell you I love you and I miss you so much I was just 2 years old when these guys just took you away from my life. I never got the chance to touch your face and kiss you and hug you and if I did I don't remember because I was too young but I keep you in my heart all the time and I pray that you are watching over me and your other kids but most for me because I miss you so much and I think about you everyday forever in my heart. daddy love you always you daughter chandra

THANKS AND PRAISE,
FOR OUR DAYS,
'NEATH THE SUN, 'NEATH THE STARS, 'NEATH THE SKY,

GOD IS NIGH.

Thank you, Waverly Jones, on this the 32nd anniversary of your tragic, barbarous slaying at the hands of misguided cowards. You will be remembered and honored always by those who knew you, and those who wish they could have.
