Sheila,

I see you everyday on my left shoulder, next to my heart. I will never forget how you motivated me during our tour at the Norfolk Police Academy (CLASS OF 67). I can hear you now saying "Come Foster you can do it"! I 'm Thankful and Blessed to have wore the same uniform as you!! It's been an Honor, THANK YOU SHEILA!

It's been 11 years. It seems like yesterday we were at Starbucks having our Carmel machioto. I am trying very hard to remember not only that you died but you also lived. I love you. Missing you terribly. Rest in peace.

Love your identical twin sis Sharon

Sheila, I still think of how after I left DPD to rejoin APD and I left my flight jacket in our PT office. I remember returning to Detroit for a visit and you wouldnt give me my jacket back. It makes me smile and I thank God that you kept it. You are always thought of and oneday we will see each other again.

Police Officer Sheila Herring 10 years have past. Everyday that I'm bless to wake up, to see your badge on my shoulder and reflect. You'll always be near and dear to my heart!!! Thanks for pushing me during the tough times in the police academy (Norfolk PD 67th Class).

Today is our day. That's why it hurts so bad, but the more I think about it even if we were 99 years old and you passed away it still wouldn't have been enough time. So all I can do is be grateful that I had you for 39 years. We were suppose to go to a spa out of town and get pampered and eat lettuce and avacado on our 50th. So now what do I do? I just shop. Shopping takes the place of something you really want but can't buy. I miss seeing you and I miss hearing you. You were always the boss and that's how we rolled. I wouldn't have it any other way. That was just us. Happy 50th Sis.

Loving you beyond eternity

I am still going to say time does not heal all wounds. Time just takes us with it. I still seems like yesterday to me. I can't believe it has been 10 years. The world has gotten so crazy since you have been gone. Six year old children were killed in school. I think I am on the wrong planet. I can't wait to see you again. No matter how long it takes. I am waiting for the day. Mom wouldn't let them separate us during our lifetime. So death will not separate us either.

I still miss the weekend phone calls saying where yall at? I miss seeing you everyday. I was so thrilled when you decided to move to VA. Sometimes I wonder if I didn't talk you into moving here would you still be with me just in Michigan.

Loving you always and waiting until we meet again
Love You

It has been almost 10 years since you were taken in the middle of the night. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. Not a minute goes by that I don't miss you. It seems like yesterday we were getting in trouble for something. What most people don't know is that you are still on patrol. I went on a call with a mentally unstable man about a year ago. He was locked inside his house. I finally talked him into opening the door, but the chain was still on. He took one look at me and asked, "Where is Officer Herring?" I showed him your picture that I wear around my neck everyday and he opened the door. After further inspection, he said "yep that's Officer Herring." We were able to get him the services he needed because of you. I wasn't shocked or afraid because I know I never ride alone. I know you have been with me, looking over me and keeping me safe. I know this because you have always been there for me. You are a very special woman and a beautiful person inside and out. I love you gurl.....

I miss you Sheila. You were such a special lady. I will never forget when you finally qualified the MDA course on the range in the academy. You ran up and threw your arms around me. The rest of the class looked on in horror wondering what Sgt. Carter was going to do. You let go and I saw the fear in your face. I'm so glad that I laughed and gave you a big congratulatory hug. We all miss you so much and I will continue to pray for your family. RIP beautiful lady.
