Reflections for Lieutenant Gregory Floyd Medlin

Uncle Greg,

I haven't posted anything in forever. Just wanted to tell you how much I love and miss you and Pepaw. I'm finishing up my internship in nashville with the Tennessee titans. It's been a blast. I know yall have the best view of the field I get to work on everyday but I sure wish i could call and show yall pictures everyday. I'm moving back home on Sunday to start working at the university of memphis. I sure wish yall were here for one more fishing trip. Continue to watch over all of us and know that we love yall both very much. Love ya uncle Greg!

Merry Christmas Sweetie,

Everyone is gone for the day and I was just thinking of all the things you would probably want for Christmas. A new 6 I Phone and all kinds of new police equipment. I would give the world if you were here so I could get you all of them. It's really sad and I miss you when the family is gathered together. I can just imagine what kind of pranks you would be pulling on everyone. I wonder if you would approve of the girls friends.
Tell Dad I said Merry Christmas and I miss and love you both so very, very much. My Christmas wish is that you were both here with us. I will Love you forever.

Hey Honey,

I miss you so much it hurts! I look back and think... Eleven years? What would life be like? How much fun (trouble) you would have had with all the new technology? So many questions I have, so save me a good spot in heaven and one day we can catch up on things!

I love and miss you so very much!

Hey Sweetie,

Today has been a real hard day. I know eleven years is a long time but it seems like it was only yesterday that you left us. I Love you and miss you so very much. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you a dozen times. I sometimes wonder what you would be doing now if you were here with us. Tell Dad I love and miss him too.

I LOVE YOU SO VERY, VERY MUCH AND WISH YOU WERE HERE WITH US.

Keep watch over us and know we miss and love you!!!!!!!!!

Hi Sweetie,

I always hate this time of the year. It makes me sad. I can hardly believe its been eleven years since you had the wreck. I'll never forget the fear I felt when the dispatcher called. I love you so very much and miss you. September is a very hard month for me. Dad died on the thirteenth and you had a wreck on the twenty-fifth.

Just know that I still miss and love you like it was this morning. Tell Dad I love and miss him too. Keep watch over us. LOVE YOU !!!

Hey Baby,

I always dread this time of the year. I can't believe it's been eleven years since your accident. I still picture you in my mind every day. I love and miss you. See you in my dreams!

Hi Sweetie,

It's still not real to me that you are gone. I think of you a dozen times a day. If I hear a siren I think of the night we got the call from the Sheriff Department. It almost makes me sick to think of it. I still talk to your deputies. Winky has a new baby. This makes two. I talked to Post last week and he was telling me about one of your famous meetings.

I love you and miss you so very much. Please watch over your two girls and the rest of our family. Both girls will be in college in a few weeks. Tell Dad we love and miss him too.

Happy Birthday Honey, it's still so hard to grasp you not being here in my life! I am always thinking about the things you would have liked or enjoyed. I wonder about if you would still worry about your "hairs" being combed so perfect!? Lol. I love and miss you so much!!!

Hi Sweetie,
You would be so proud, your little girl graduated high school last night. She was in the top 25 out of 262 highschool students graduating from Olive Branch High. She must have her Dad's brain.

Please continue to keep watch over Danielle, Andi and the rest of us. I love you and miss you so very much. Tell Dad I love and miss him too.

Hey Sweetie,

Today was the annual memorial service for the fallen heros of DeSoto County. The service was so nice but so very very sad. I don't think I'll ever be able to go to a service without it bringing back memories as if it was just yesterday that you left us.

I saw Grossman and Monkey. It made me think of all the times they stayed with us at the hosoital.

Tell Dad hi. I love and miss you both so very very much.

Hey Honey, I hope you are having a great Easter! I hope and pray you are watching over my first grandchild. She is just twenty days old and already has Trey wrapped around her little finger! She is a true blessing!

You are in my mind and always in my heart, that will never ever change. I just really miss you more when I need to celebrate, share, or morn! The good, bad, sad, ugly and everything in between. Sometimes, I know in my heart what you would say about something happening and this gives me comfort or makes me laugh and shake my head!!!

Happy Valentine's Day Greggypoo! I saw a pair of socks the other day that made me laugh so hard! I just had to buy them because you would have loved to show them off to your buddies! I'll keep them safe for you and look at them when I need a good laugh. I just wish you were here so I could give them to you live and in person. I miss you and will forever love you!

Hi Sweetie,
Your little girls are growing up real fast. Danielle was 18 last Saturday and Andi will be 22 tomprrow. Can't believe how fast the time flies.

It seems just yesterday that you were here with us, making us all laugh. You'll never know how much I love and miss you . Tell Dad I love and miss him too.

Hi Sweetie,

I knw you think I have forgotten to write to you but I haven't. I left a post on December 21, Decmber 24 and another one on December 25. None of them appeared.

I just want to tell you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and to tell you how very much I love and miss you and Dad. Christmas was not the same. When I was shopping I saw so many things that I knew you would like. Wish you were here to spoil.

I love and miss you so very much. Maybe this year will be easier.
LOVE

It is hard to believe that ten years have gone by so fast.It seems like yesterday.You are in my thoughts often.When thinking back to my years of law enforcement, you are always part of that memory.You kept me out of trouble,and were always a good friend to me.You always made me laugh since we were in the 4th grade. I wish I could have been half the officer you were.

I can't believe it's been 10 years...we love & miss you so very much...
One day our whole family will be gathered together again, with you and everyone else we've lost.
THAT'S a Medlin Christmas gathering I look forward to, and thank God for the peace of knowing this is temporary.
But, we still miss you, and it still hurts to not have you here; everyone that loved you feels your absence everyday. Thank goodness for the promise of Christ!

Hey Honey,
Everyday is hard without you here, but this date is just a real brutal reminder to me that life will never be the same.

I have had some real exciting news along the way with high school and college graduation for both of my kids ("Karen" keeps adding to hers!) Trey landed me a beautiful daughter- in-law and five years later, I found out I'm going to be a Mimi and a great aunt! I just wish you were here to tease me about buying this or that and giving me a hard time about being old!

I truly believe you can see the good things from heaven and hope you keep looking over all of us. I still say my special prayer, but I added this little quote from a card I received anonymously.

When someone dies, you don't get over it by forgetting; you get over it by remembering, and you are aware that no person is ever truly lost or gone once they have been in our life and loved us, as we have loved them.

Hi Sweetie,
I can hardly bear to think of what happened to us ten years ago today. It was the very worst thing to happen to our family. Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday that you were playing your tricks on all of us and then again it feels like you have been gone forever.

I love and miss you just as much right now as I did on November 2, 2003. Tell Dad we love and miss him too. I know we'll see each other again someday and I just want you two to know how much you are loved and missed until we can tell you in person.


The girls are doing well. Andi is in her third year at Ole Ms and Danielle is a senior. They both miss and love you too.
Will Bo is still at MS State. Don't know what I would do without my two girls and three grandchildren.

lease keep a watch over us until we meet again. LOVE and MISS you so much.
