I did a ride along with a Morrow Officer sometime in 1995. I saw this young mans photo on the wall of the PD and remembered thinking how young he was. (I was only 20 at the time) I have always kept this young face in mind over the years. Rest easy brother.

To the family, friends and colleagues of HERO Officer Jeffrey Manning Phegley: I mailed my No Parole letter today, on his behalf.
I am very sorry for your loss of such a young man! It’s so unfair that you have to keep reliving your pain, with each new parole board hearing.
To Officer Phegley: Thank You for your service and sacrifice. You are not forgotten!

God Bless You All!

We attended the Norwood Police Academy together. As I prepare for retirement, I pulled out our old class photo. I wept the day you were killed and shed a tear now thinking of you and your family. I know the Lord took you under his arm and have made you the perfect guardian angel. Till we all meet again.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 25th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never dimishes respect and you will always be honored and revered. I pray for solace for all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.

Rest In Peace

I have visited this site many times, I never met you, don't know what it is maybe the same type of uniform that I wore when I was hired in 1977, the same hair style the sun glasses hanging off of the pocket, don't know but I do know this, it was the same determination to serve, I can see that!!. I gave my all for 20 years and retired, you gave your all and your life, we that survived all die a little when one of our own loses his/her life in the line of duty, I've been out 12 yrs now but a day doesn't go by that I don't reflect on the most valued 20 yrs. of my life. Thank You Officer Phegley for your unselfish service....

There is a petition going around in reference to your murderer's upcoming parole hearing. From what I've read he seems very confident he will be getting out in 2010. I hope and pray that doesn't happen and he at least stays behind bars for the rest of his days. I trust you are enjoying your new beat. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. Watch over those still on earth.

Jeff, I remember the day that you were killed in the line of duty. I was only 18 years old in High School. That incident made me so angry and sad. I decided that I wanted to make Law Enforcement a career and go after every bad guy that I could. I became a Cadet at the WCSO at 18 and then a Deputy at the age of 20. I patroled Warren County for many years there after. I thought of you every time that I drove through Morrow. Now, 22 years later, I'm an Investigator in South Daytona Fl. Jeff, I still think of that tragic day, but realize that you are in a much nicer and safer place.

God bless,

Dion
