Reflections for Trooper Todd Michael Larkins

I still think about you and your family everyday and can only imagine the pain that your parents, sisters and daughter must be feeling everyday. Please continue to watch over us here on earth and give us the strength to make it and live the right kind of life, so that one day we all can be with you again. I love you and miss you everyday. You were one of the greatest people I have ever known and the best friend a person could ask for.

I am not sure what is appropriate for me to leave here. I didn't know you, but I feel like I have been able to learn about you from the heartfelt messages left by your family.
You are not forgotten.

It was 2 yrs. ago today that you were taken from us! It’s so unfair you should be here with us!! We LOVE you and miss you more and more with each passing day. We can’t wait until the day that we are all back together again. They say with time this gets easier to handle but I can't see how it gets any easier.

Love,

Your wife and daughter

It has been 2 years today since you were taken away from us here on earth and placed in heaven to watch over us. I am very greatful that I have someone like you watching over me everyday, butI also miss you a lot. I never go a day without thinking about you and youe wonderful smile. The pain that I feel today is the same pain that I felt the day you were taken from us. I try and make myself believe that you are in a better place happy and still displaying that famous smile that only you could give, but the pain remains. You will always be in my heart and never forgotten keep up the good work in heaven, but know that my place on earth will never be the same and I wait for the day when I can see you again.

As we move closer to the anniversary of your death, I have a huge sense of dread in living that day over and over in my mind. I think about you each day, but I try to think of the happy times, with that big grin on your face - July 8 is a hard day....just know that we are thinking of you. You are loved and missed and always will be.

Continue to watch over us and give us strength. Everyone says that this gets easier. I don't think that it does, I think that you just learn how to live with it. It does make me happy to drive down the road & see your face on a bumper sticker....you made a difference. Love you.

Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you.

You have not been forgotten, you made a difference and continue to do so....we will always love you.

Miss you!

From one THP Trooper to another, I did not know you but from looking at the reflections left, you made a big impact on many people. We strive everyday to keep the reputation that those ahead of us have earned, I believe you kept the reputation. Your watch is over but I know that your brothers in the Tennessee Highway Patrol have taken care of your family. Watch over those of us still here pounding the pavement. Rest easy brother.

Todd-
A lot has changed since you have been gone. I am no longer in law enforcement. Every since my dad died last year, I just had to get away from it. I did the unthinkable and joined the military. I am happy here, for once in my life. I think about you often and wish sometimes that I could call you up to talk or just for advice.....like I used to do.
I miss you brother!

I was washing my truck on my day off when I got the call. I don't remember who called me but the news of your death stunned, no shocked me. I broke down and cried in my yard with my wife asking me what was wrong. I told her what had happened. She didn't know you, but knew of you. I told her of the Sunday mornings when we were working and we would meet up at the salt depot on I-40. We'd bullshit and you'd run radar. I also showed her a picture from "way back" when we played soccer together, boy we were young! Your passing hit me hard. We all miss you. Rest in peace, brother, we will meet again.

I KNEW YOU IN PASSING. A QUICK WAVE AS OUR PATROL CARS PASSED OR WHEN YOU HAD A PRISONER DOWN AT PD. BUT ON THE DAY YOU LEFT US I FELT LIKE I HAD LOST MY BEST FRIEND. THE HELPLESSNESS THAT I FELT WHEN I SAW ALL THE TROOPER CARS FLYING BY ME TRYING TO GET TO THEIR BROTHER IS NOTHING THAT I WILL EVER FORGET NOR DO I EVER WANT TO EXPERIENCE AGAIN. I TOO PASS THE "SITE" QUITE OFTEN AND I ALWAYS TO MYSELF SAY HI AND A LITTLE PRAYER.

TO ALISHA,
AS LONG AS I AM AT PD THERE WILL ALWAYS BE MOVE OVER STICKERS ON OUR CARS. NOT ONLY TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE PUBLIC BUT ALSO TO REMEMBER YOUR LOVING HUSBAND.

TODD,
YOU WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN. REST EASY AND WE LOVE YOU BROTHER.

It is with my deepest sympathies that we have lost another member of the family of Tennesses' finest men. Though I didn't know this man personaly, I have a great fondness for our Highway Patrol in the great state of Tennessee who take the time to care enough about the citizens to protect us from the insanity. My prayers go to the Larkins Family and to those of all fallen Officers of the THP. May God give you the strength to know that Todd is and was loved and shall stay in our hearts and minds.

I have tried several times to leave you a few words. I never know what to say. I have become close friends with your wife and I feel like I know you myself. I am sorry that I never got to know you personally for I know we would have been good friends. I'm sure Ralph was there waiting to greet you. Alicia and I are brushing up on our worst case scenario survival skills so you and Ralph better watch out. Please continue to watch over us and all those who wear the badge.

I'm certain that you know by now that a fellow trooper was killed today, Trooper Jenks. I know that you welcomed him with a big grin - the same one that I always remember. Today has been a tough day - it brings back memories of you and when I heard the news that you had been killed.

I just wanted you to know that you were on my mind today - much like you are everyday....today was just a little harder.

You will never be forgotten. Rest in peace dear brother.
