Reflections for Deputy Sheriff Brian Andrew Haas

Brian,

Today should be your 30th bithday. Dad and I will celebrate tonight; remembering that memorable, wonderful night of your birth. How we wish you were here to celebrate with us. Twenty one birthdays will never be enough, and we can't help wondering where you would be today.

Love, Mom

Brian,

Dad and I just spent some time out in Oklahoma with Amanda and her family. Your nephew reminds us so much of you, when you were his age. He loves trucks, tractors, trains, rocks, and dirt, sound familiar? We had to keep catching ourselves, as we'd often start to call him by your name.

I am sad that you never had the opportunity to enjoy being an uncle to K. & E., and they never got to experience playing with their Uncle Brian. Just one of so many things you missed in your short 21 years on earth.

I have spent most of today thinking about the precious little boy you were and the great young man you became. I miss you so much.

Love, Mom

Thinking of you and your family on this eighth anniversary of your e.o.w. date. I know that you have been missed by all that call you beloved, especially your parents. I pray for their solace. You will always be remembered as a dedicated public servant who gave all to protect his community.

Time has become an ugly reminder of just how long it's been. Eight long years since we've heard your voice, saw your smile, looked in your eyes, and felt one of your great hugs. A parent's love is forever, and you live forever in our hearts.

You my Son
Have shown me God
Your kiss upon my cheek
Has made me feel the gentle touch
Of Him who leads us on.....

Brian,

I do not want to be sad tomorrow, your 29th birthday. Dad and I want to "celebrate" your birth, recalling how happy we were that night, 29 years ago. So today, I will allow myself to wonder where you would be in life if you had not died a few weeks after your 21st birthday. I think of all that you have missed; weddings, births, and even deaths, and I am sad.

I love and miss you more than I ever thought possible. Happy Birthday my precious son.

Eight years ago, you worked 6P to 6A on your very last Christmas Eve. I remember calling you at midnight to wish you a Merry Christmas. How I wish I could call you tonight. I miss you.

Bri,

I baked a batch of your favorite Christmas cookies last night. How I wish you were here to eat them as fast as they came out of the oven. So many memories of past Christmas's. It will never be the same.

Dad and I miss and love you so very much.

Love, Mom

Brian,

Remembering our last family fishing trip to Ten Thousand Islands. It was in August, 2003, just before you started crossover classes at the academy. It seems like a lifetime ago, and that scares me. The memories of your 21 years are precious, there will be no more, and I don't want to forget a single detail.

You are in my thoughts daily, but some days you are all I can think about. I miss you so much.

Love, Mom
