Hey Mister,

Almost two years and it still seems like just yesterday we were sitting at the Wheel at 2am just talking about nothing and everything... I'm back on the road at CAAS. At first it was difficult, I left there shortly after your accident and going back only made me miss you more. I was working the road when Smitty got in his accident a few weeks ago, the only I could think was "O' not again!" I know you were looking out for him, Thank you!!! I miss you tons, and we are all still waiting for it to get easier. I don't think it ever will.
Please, continue to look out for everyone. We miss you tons.

It will soon be 2 years that you were called away from duty. It has been a long up hill battle for all those that love you. There are no words I can give them to help ease their grief. I ask that you keep watch over them and wrap your wings around them to comfort them. You have not been forgotten and are a true hero.

Hey you, can't help but wish it was January 2nd. The holidays are just like any other day for me, just go through it wishing you were here. Have to go get cleetus something for christmas because I know how you are, whatever your boy wants, he gets. Had Helen take the jeep because it needs to be driven, and now cleetus has gone back to waiting for you in the driveway. I love you and miss you so very much.

I love you

I was saddened to hear the news from an old friend that another old friend had passed. I was in Panama many years ago with Perry. We were both very young but he, indeed, was someone you don't forget. My condolences to the family he left behind.

We all miss you lots. You are in our thoughts always. I Miss you sooo much. Until we see eachother again.

Perry,

I've visited your page several times since the accident. I haven't known what to say. I feel Paula's pain through her posts. There are so many that miss you.

Please pray for your friend, who is still struggling. Please watch over him and pray that he does the soul searching that he needs to. Please pray that everything will be okay.

Perry,

I've visited this site many of times and have never left any words for you. Some of the reason is because after reading other reflections, there really isn't much for me to say and it feels like this happened all over again.

You had a lot of family and friends that cared about you and I'm honored to be one of those friends. The coffee meets and "law enforcement trivia" games can only be memories now, but they will always be with me.

You were a good friend Trucker and keep those 18 wheels a movin.....

Seasons are changing and seems like everything else is too. You know how much I've always hated that. Cleetus and I tried to sleep up stairs and we just laid there looking at eachother, then we came back down stairs. I just want my life back, I want us back. Geography won't change that. Forever in my heart, indented in my soul.

i love you

Bum, sorry I have not written to you in a long time. The words are hard to write, but you are in my thoughts every day. I will be going back to the road in a few months, hope to the uniforms still fit. Man is it going to be different with out you. We all miss the crazy things you said and did.

Thanks for looking over us and keeping us safe. Ohh yeah, thanks again for the great weather on August 7 we had a great turnout.

Love you Bum!

Perry,

We just lost a young C.O.P. I know he is up there with you and you are looking out for him. Owen fisher is in good hands. He was so young and did not have much time, like most of us have had. Take him under your wing like you do with us on the road and those that have gone before us.

I miss you. Can't wait to see you in the future.

I went up north for our anniversary to get away from all the stuff of yours that haunts me everyday, still haven't put anything away. I was up there and not a thing of you in sight,but I thought of you every minute,because your in my soul and that never goes away and I take you with me where ever I go. I remember on our anniversary I would say " where are we going." and you would say "I thought about taking you to "hot and now" and throwing a couple of burgers down your throat" would that be ok. I would just look at you and you would say BOB, there only about 49 cents. You always made me laugh and then we would go somewhere and have a great night. I don't miss those nights as much as the ones I seen you sprawled out on the couch with cleetus by your side, but they all hold special meaning. I look beyond myself a little now and worry about Rick, Mick, Chad and especially erl. He misses you so much, as we all do but he has a real big hole and I wish you were here for us. I miss you and happy anniversary.

I love you

Hey Perry,
Haven't been here in a while. You have 10 pages, have protected Officers during a shooting, and your precious Paula is still hurting. You are a powerful person, in a good way. If I can do any thing just ask. Miss you lots! MIKE
