I look at you everyday, and think.. You are so very much missed in my life, and when i see Raven, God, quite a duplicate, in her your here. The way she dress, the way she talk, the way she look, she is you. Beautiful! but still is hard. 3 years its still hard. Not a day go by that I don't look at this page its part of my daily routine. Love you girl, love ya, keep watching over us from above. Keep your wings of protection over us.

Your mother is doing a great job with Raven, I know your proud looking from above.

God is good all the time, all the time God is good. And I know, I see Auntie and Raven,

When we get together your name comes up and we share things about you, something you said or did. Okay its mostly me ,but I realy enjoy talking about you and hearing about you. I LOVE AND MISS YOU more then these words can say. Always in my heart, see you in my dreams. MOM

To Officer Johnson's mother,Raven,her partner Officer Summers, and all of Officer Johnson's family, friends and fellow officers , I share your pain and share in your loss. Her picture shows that she had eyes that smiled, she had a heart of gold, a love for life and her family , and a call to duty. Every time the wind blows , you feel sunshine on your face, or you see a star in the sky, you hear laughter, a baby cry, remember her and honour her. She is in heaven looking over all of you. Keeping you all close in prayer. May God Bless you for your sacrifice Officer Johnson, my sister in blue. "Eternal Rest Grant Unto Her Lord and Let Perpetual Light Shine Upon Her" and let her light shine upon all of you, and her memory will live in your hearts forever. Take Care & God Bless.

Well, it has been almost (4)years, and I know by now you know what has happened the city "you loved so much" it is in great dispear. LATOYA I just wanted to say I didn't forget, I had to take care of Mama,and now she is gone. I just returned to law enforcement, I know you think I have gone crazy, but I made a promise to you, and now I can keep it, Ms. Linda I need you to get in touch with me, I worked for Delgado Community College Police Department, now and must fulfill LaToya, and I wishes. We were in the academy together, and I was her BIG sister, we sat next to each other, and we promised each other if something happened to one of us,we would help each others family. Well I have had a loss in my family, my mother, and it was hard, but I am now on target again.I hope it is not too late, I must finish this wish for my Baby "J" I know you will remember me, Samantha Johnson, because Toya would talk about you, and Raven all the time, and the things we would do, when we were in the academy.Well I only want to complete our wish, Please get in touch with me.

My Dearest Toy,

I read this page so often and it is still very hard for me to accept that you are not here. I miss you so much. Watching Raven grow up is the best gift you could have left me. She is you allll over again. it gives me goose bumps because I have learned how strong and how unique genes are. You are present in our hearts and always will be. I love you girl.

I know I have never met you but your reflection is saved to my bookmark page. Every once in a while i take a look at it and it upsets me to know that a coward has taken you from a family that loves you dearly and another family of Law Enforcement that loves and misses you as well. Every day before my shift and night when I go to bed I pray for your family and freinds that they will be ok and live a long healthy life. I can tell by reading your reflections your daughter has some wonderful people taking care of her. Well it is almost time for briefing so i will let you go for now. Happy belated birthday my sister and GODSPEED.

dear gun,
i hate you. you should have never taken my Mom away from me. It was never up to you to put me through this sadness. We had so many things to do, so many places to see. but you had to cut everything short. it was never necessary though. She never did anything to you.

dear gun,
I loved my Mom and i know She loved me. things were never suposed to end this way. We had big plans, great dreams. now nothing can be done.

dear gun,
why my Mom? She was so young. only 27.. many things were left for Her to do, now nothing.
not to mention all the pain and grief you made this family experience. how do you think we feel?

dear gun,
thanks to you, my Mother and i can never be that family we were planing to be.
sure i didnt live with her but eventually i would have. now i cant. no more sleep overs, no more "girls day out", no more nothing.

dear gun,
yesterday was Her birthday. Shes 30 now. but thanks to you, She never saw the day.

dear gun,
If you could turn back time would you. Would you give me my Mom back.After all i need her.

Raven..
daughter

Latoya,

Although I didn't know you personally, we will always have a connection. That connection is law enforcement and being female officers. I have the utmost respect and admiration for you. I hope that you will continue to rest in peace and know that you are a true inspiration to us all.

Hi Toy it's me Will. Well as you already know by now my dad passed away. I hope you and your dad can welcome him. I know he is with you all in spirit. I can't tell you enough how much I miss you LaToya. Your courage and strength for your father has taught me to be strong for my father. I think about you everyday, and I always will. One day we will all be in the same place together. I cherish all of our memories pre-academy, during and after the academy. I still remember our first night shift together and how I didn't allow you to drive the police car, or how I fell and cut my elbow and you cleaned it in the station with your first-aid kit. LaToya you are such a fine person. I miss making you laugh so much. I love you and miss you.

Just wanted to let you know that you have not been forgotten. Came across a poem I'd like to share with your loved ones for I know they think of you each and every day and find those moments when they have those private tears that come from their hearts.

Poem by Norton:

Those we hold most dear never truly leave us.
They live on in the kindness they showed,
The comfort they shared,
And the love they brought into our lives.

You will never be forgotten Blue Angel. Continue to keep watch over your loved ones and protect them, wrap your wings around them and help them with their grief.

Reaching Out

I feel your pain
and long to touch the hurt
and make it melt away.
Yes, I know
that I can’t really see
the breadth
and depth
of this dark valley you’re in.
I can’t truly know
just how sharp the knife is
in your soul –
for it is you in its path,
not me.
But I have known other valleys
and in my heart
still bear knife-wound scars.
Even so,
I would walk your road
and take your pain
if I could
I cannot.
And yet, perhaps
in some way
I can be a hand to hold
in the darkness;
in some way, try to blunt
the sharpness of pain.
But if not –
it may help a little
just to know I care.

To Mrs. Linda

She is Gone

You can shed tears that she is gone
Or you can smile because she has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left.

Your heart can be empty because you can't see her
Or you can be full of the love that you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.

You can remember her and only that she is gone
Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back,
Or you can do what she would want:
smile, open your eyes,
love and go on.
