Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

For some reason, I thought of you when I heard about the Dallas officers. Your statue still stands in Newaygo in Marshall Park and I still have the t-shirt with your picture on it.

You're still in our memories here.

Mother's Day was a tough one this year, for many reasons. Hoping that mom is with you and that she is happy/at peace. She missed you so much. Jer is doing the best he can.....which is really impressive......but he seems so sad without mom. I'm proud of him for how he has handled all of this. Wish you were here.... Life is lonely without you.

Watched movies of us with our young kids on vacation. It made me cry and laugh at the same time. I'll cherish those moments forever. Miss you tons.

I grew up in Newaygo and remember the day you were murdered. I was just a young kid. I see your picture in the post and I know you are watching over us. Your sacrifice is not in vain.

Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.
Thank you for your heroism.
GOD Bless

Was driving down 16 Mile Road and passed your neighborhood. How many times I wonder did I make that trip? Seems so long ago yet seems like yesterday. Think of you and miss you.

He's graduating soon. I'm heartbroken that you won't be there. How has all this time gone by?
He's shooting like a pro. His best is 98/100....but that's not good enough. I know he will get his 100/100 soon. He plans to shoot at Hillsdale, if he's good enough. He works hard at it....I'm guessing he will be, if he continues to want it. His hand/eye coordination is remarkable. His instincts are amazing. You would be so proud.
She swims like a mermaid. She's made for the water. You already know this...we both know this and we know why/how we know this....she just is. It's the confidence in how great she is that she's lacking. It will come. She is a swimmer. You would be so proud.
I miss you so much.

Kevin,

I was thinking about you today when I came across some ES team gear in my garage. You are missed and thought of everyday.

God speed my friend.

10 years ago Kevin, you were taken from us. Still hurts, but I know you are looking down at us and smiling. Miss you Brother, my life has not been the same since. Some day we will shake hands again...

Hey Kev~

Not sure why I feel compelled to come here and write to you, but I do. I realize that there are those that might feel I moved away and forgot about you, but that is the furthest thing from the truth and I imagine that you know that. I live with your death and memories of you every single day. I will continue to live with it for the rest of my life....long after mom and dad are gone, if I outlive them. I hope that I am honoring your memory by living the life that I want to live....trying to be a good wife and great mom. I know that you lived the life that you wanted to live, even if it ended way too soon.

Ryley has taken a liking to shooting....imagine that. He's on the Trap team for his high school (can you believe he's going to be a Junior?) and he's quite good. Please be with him at next weeks State Championship.....help him to clear his mind, calm his nerves and really see the targets.

Emma is our swimmer. She is really good...but sometimes has an issue with confidence. Please help her to get her damn dive down. You were always such an amazing diver. Can you help her?

I really hope that you are not missing any of this and that I will see you again.

As it gets near your tenth, I find myself reflecting on you with as much sorrow as if it just happened. This should not have happened, and so many still cope with the loss of you in their lives. Peace Brother in Blue. I truly miss you!!!

Merry Christmas Kev,
Can't believe this is the 10th Christmas without you.
Went to the academy and cemetary yesterday like we do every year. Still seems like yesterday when all was well with the world and you were here with all of us. Enjoy Christmas with your grandparents and all your friends who are with you in Heaven.
We love you.

Can I just say that this still s***s worse than anything in life. I want to freaking scream at the top of my lungs and punch my walls until my hands break.

But, your life here has made me so much of a better person, and I can't ever thank you enough for all the incredible laughs and good times you brought then and even now when I rethink them. You lived life like no other human.

I miss the p00p out of you. Your chair is empty, forever.
