Reflections for Police Officer Brian Donte Winder

Hey B,
I've been thinking about you alot. Please welcome Ofc Portz into your arms as he joins you and Byrd. Its wierd but the three of you are all comedians. Portz was on my shift which means that I have lost another friend. I'm trying my best to keep my head up. Its so hard. I hope that I will be able to join you guys where I will suffer no more. Help me through these trying times please. I miss you.

Six years have passed and for some it feels like yesterday that they saw your smile, felt your warm touch and heard your voice. For others it has felt like an eternity. Continue to keep watch over all of your loves ones. You have not been forgotten.

Hey B, it took me a moment to come to this page. With all that is going on, this 6th year hit me pretty hard. I just wish I could have done more so that you could be here with us. No one seems to understand or care anymore, and for me that hurts more. Please watch over your family and please help me through so that I can stay focussed on my surroundings. Im trying so hard not to give up B.

I can't believe it has been 6 years. Sometimes it feels like yesterday and other times it seems longer when I look at Brandon and Corey. Continue to look down on your brothers and sisters as they continue to work the streets that have gotten worse since you left us. I know you are still with me and always will be. Thank you for your guidance and protection. Love and Miss You Always!

Lorrie,

As "our" month begins tomorrow, just wanted to let you and the entire family know that you're all in my thoughts always. Six years...where did the time go! Brian, please continue to look over Tanya and Jen out there. This has been a terrible year for the City so far.

Love ya Lorrie! Stay strong!

Hello Bear, It has been a while since I have visited this website. Just needed to write a line or two. Brandon will go on to High School in the fall. You would be proud of him. Please stay with him in everyway that he needs. It is not easy directing him alone to go in the right path, but I am doing it and I know he will be successful someday and turn out to be a good man just as you were. Love and Miss You forever.

Hey B. Words cant express how much I miss you and Byrd. I feel like I dont belong with this department anymore due to state that it is in now. I feel like a lost child in a zoo. I wish you were here to help me stay focus. Everyday I try hard to remember what you taught me but I feel like I'm the only one. This fight is a hard one. With all of the frustration, non support, lack of togetherness, this place has become foreign to me. Please stay with me. If anything please dont let me forget what you taught me. I wish there was an easier way.

I thought of you today as I have for many days and particularly when I spend time with the family. Brandon reminds me so much of you, his smile, fingers, walk and definitely his reflection. He is a good son, Lorrie has done so well with him – you would be so proud. I thank you for your friendship and your enduring grace.

Thinking about you Brian as always. Continue to look out for your fellow co-workers down here and us too. Corey is an offical adult now as of yesterday. Continue to guide and lead him from above. He maybe older now, but he still needs your guidence. You would be proud of him.

I have been having a couple crappy weeks, so I wanted to stop by. :) I found your 95 in my new desk. It was one that you wrote requesting to come back to patrol EV, to help the community. I have it hanging next to my desk with Sammy and Tony. I love you all!

I don't know if you will ever read this whoever you are who wrote the last reflection from the Deputy and Firefighter Department from Southwest Florida, but thank you for your kind words and words of hope and faith. May you be protected in your line of work by angels and return home safely at the end of your shift to your loved ones. Sometimes perfect strangers have the kindest things to say even after time has passed that will help a person more than you will ever know. The words can be kinder than words that should come from ones own family or friends. Thank you to whoever you are and peace be with you always

Officer Winder- thank you for your service and sacrifice, it will NEVER be forgotten.

Mrs. Winder - Everyone always says its near impossible to be with a Cop, but when we have a Wife/Girlfriend/Husband/ect. to stand beside us it makes the job much more enjoyable. Despite the dangers, Officer Winder engaged in a proffesion he loved and you stood by his side. It is nothing short of incredible the obvious bond you shard with him, judging by the "i love you" reflections left periodically more than 5 years later. Officer Winder was a lucky man to have such an incredible wife by his side. The entire Law Enforcement community stands by your side in your difficult time, you are not in this alone. Officer Winder left us as nothing less than a Hero, and I hope that dries some tears, or hopefully sheds some tears of happiness.

Rest easy Brother...

Hey B, I made it to see another birthday this year. This year hasnt been the best but I'm still pushing my way through. I wish you were still here to tell me how to make it through these obstacles. The job today would disgrace you. I miss your encouraging words that showed me how to deal. Everyday, I learn more and more how we as a people are our worst enemies. I just pray that I get the courage to handle my life the way God wants me to. It's way time that I pull through this much better and land on top where I know I should be. Just continue to watch over me B. I dont care anymore what they say! I miss you!!!!
