View all 195 Reflections4 months, 4 months...many of us had time to mourn others are still healing and some have accepted the fact of your passing. There’s not a single day that goes by when I don’t think of you, I remember you giving me a hard time when I first started, all in good faith of course. But something I know I’ll never in my life ever forget is your smile. You brought joy, laughter and Fun to this community, there are so so many memories that I can think of with you but that’ll just go on for quite a while. One I do remember very much is when you and I would stick pens inside Officer Walker’s vest on he back to where her arms couldn’t reach or when I’d get called to booking to translate for you, while my time there one thing I always wanted to learn very well is how to be the best damn booking officer there was, you were efficient because you had a good partner next to you in classifications and none of us will ever forget you. We love you Dixon and will always think of you. - Jail #125
