To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the seventh anniversary of your death.

Your family is in my heart's embrace. Our families began our grief journeys very close in time.

Rest In Peace.

Trooper Parker,
Its been 7 years and I still see the flames and feel the heat. I told my oldest daughter about the significance of May 16th. I cried as did she. She told me that it was gods plan and that Rudy and I did all that we could. She told me that you had already gone to be with god. This, comming from a 13 year old touched my heart and helped me through the 7th anniversary of your passing. It still hurts. Praying for your family. Rest peacefully my brother. Thank you for your sacrifice.

Trooper its been seven years to the day that I failed to get through the flames. I made my way to 527 and Skinner rd today like I have every year since 2005 and said the same prayer for your family. RIP Troop and as always I'm sorry.

I can't stop thinking about you today bro. Lots have things have changed in seven years and. Boy do I wish you were here to live it with me. As I sit by your resting spot I reflect all those times good and bad. I believe you are the only man I have ever sat in the median and cried with. No matter what it was I always could count on you. You are a great friend!

Seven years of mornings ago, we all got up, got ready for work, went to out jobs, but one of us would never return home. That was you. Miss you. Love you all the way to heaven.

Seven years. This time of year, the leaves have a certain shade of green, the air a certain feel which causes us to feel anew the pain, the shock, of your loss.You will never, ever be forgotten.

Jon,
As the years pass, the pain still shows. I think about that ill fated day in May, 2005 and the uneasy feeling as Rudy and I followed in the pursuit. I still see the flames, I still feel the heat, I'm sorry my brother that we couldn't get through the flames. It still hurts just as bad as it did almost 7 years ago, but I am honored and privileged to have known a hero such as you. Rest peacefully my brother. Thank you for your sacrifice.

Life goes on; seasons change as do we all. One thing that will never change is the empty space in the hearts of all those who love you. Love, not loved. Our love for you will live on in our hearts. Remembering you, every day, always.

Uncle Jon-Jon,

More of your brothers in uniform were killed today here in Tampa. I wonder if the killers will ever know how much pain they have caused the families of the officers...? I wonder if your killer ever thinks of the devastation he has caused our family...? Today, I struggle to understand this crazy world.

I miss you so much.

Love,

Kim

I woke up this morning and was reading the news on the net, saw that another officer lost his life in the line of duty. When I looked at officer Shuhandler’s picture, I could not help but see the similarities between he and my brother.

I have not posted anything on this site, it’s been five years now since the death of my brother and so much has happened or changed in my life. I am not even sure what to write..!

I just know when I read the story of the death of officer Shuhandler I felt compelled to write something to his wife, family and fellow officers.

After leaving a short message for his family and fellow officers I went to the “ODMP’ web page and looked up my brother, I read through all the postings and got all choked-up..!

The support from the SCHP and ODMP has been incredible; this is truly a family, and it really comes together in tragedies like this. And I thank all of them for there support and sympathies.

Too my brother, you were such a great man, I admired you and could only look up to you. You lived your life with such honor and character, I was so proud to call you my brother.

You were truly a “chip off the old block” I know father was proud of you as well, you had his gift of being creative with your hands. The work you did on your rifle stock was just incredible and your knife making was coming right along!

Rest easy my brother all is well, your wife Sue is doing just fine and is going to have a child, mother is doing fine and doing her thing, she went on a trip to Israel….! Pop and I plan on bird hunting some time soon; he has two bird dogs you would probably love…!

Precious Jon,
Not a day goes by that I do not think of you. Your absence continues to mark each day, but I try not to spend too much time imagining what might have been.
Miss you.
Love you.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the fourth anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.

Rest In Peace.

Parker,

I am sitting at my computer, working on a term paper that is due tonight. It is on the Highway Patrol, part of a government class that I am taking. As I write this paper all I can do is think of you, the hunting we did, all the ROTC events over the fours years we where in it together, the old Scout that you were so proud of... I think it was a Scout. I digress... Lucy and I remember May 15th very well. We were watching TV and a breaking story came on about a fallen trooper in Sumter County. Lucy said, "God, please don't be Parker..." As the story broke, we learned that it was you and very deeply, deeply saddened... I immediately called Capt. Andrews to let him know.

We miss you and think about you often.
