Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Wow, I can't believe it's been 4 years. You still bring tears to my eyes and there will always be an empty space in my heart.

I'll never forget that night 4 years ago when the phone rang and we heard the news. I sat outside alone in the cold and the dark and just cried, wishing it wasn't true. We still had so much to do together.

Miss you and will never forget you. Thank you for being you and thank you for the great memories. Keep watching over him for me, he needs it. Thanks for being with us.

Thinking of you today, and every day.

It is hard to believe that 4 years ago tonight you responded to your last call. I will never forget the place I was when I learned of your passing. I still patrol the area where you left us and reminds me how much officers should value every minute.
In July I took my friends from out of state to see your name on the wall and then proceeded to the gift shop. Right before we left something caught my eye. I looked down and there was a small bear next to a picture of you stating "Items left on the memorial wall". I found that coincidental that out of thousands of names a reminder of you was in that shop the day I visited.
To Ms. Pataki my family is still thinking of you even as time passes by.

To Kristin:

It's apparent by the reflections left that you were a special person, not just a good cop. So many people feel such a loss at your untimely passing. You are truly missed. You have such a warm, beautiful smile in your picture and it's obvious that smile had a positive impact on many people. May you be resting comfortably when not on the beat up in Heaven.

To Mrs. Pataki:

I'm on the brink of tears reading all the lovely reflections left by family, friends and even those who never met Kristin and to read that you lost your husband as well is heartbreaking to say the least. Yet, despite the setbacks, it seems you have kept on going. I admire and respect you and wish you well. You are every bit as much a hero as Kristin. God Bless you.

I had the honor of being invited to the fund raiser to honor those in Fire, Law Enforcement and Corrections. For those who read this, for those who serve, for those you love, please contribute to this fund. I was asked by a young girl, covering this event for a school newspaper, why I was there. I was there to honor all those that run toward, not away from harm's way. Those who risk their lives for us,for those families who grieve like mine. We pray for you all and are so proud of who you are.
Godspeed

Many new faces come and go through the Park Police doors. But your presence is constant. You often remind me of how short life really is. Thank you for reminding me that all the small, petty things are not that important.
Keep watch over your mom and sister.

September 12, 2005

Think of you often and about what we'd be doing now. Miss you everyday. Thank you for the short time we had together. You will be with me for a lifetime.

It has been a while since I have visited the ODMP site. Every officer on here is connected. Regardless of rank or assignment...there is one thing that makes them one. That one thing is a piece of metal that is worn over our hearts. It physically doesnt weigh much at all. However, emotionally it is heavier than one could ever imagine. We lost another brother last month during the Bio-Tech Convention portests.

To Officer Pataki's family:
Again I have been truly touched by reading your reflections.
Please know that Kristin is not forgotten. Please know that you are not forgotten.
...and will never be forgotten.

It is not how these officers died that made them heros....It is how they lived that made them heros.
