Every day, in some way, I am reminded of you and your kindness. It always brings a tear, and a smile.
Peace brother.

Wow...this is the first time that I've been able to come and read these words about you, Owen. It's amazing to see how many people thought of you and how much you are missed. Rest assured that we miss you too. Pat is turning into an awesome goalie and Dan is becoming a mid fielder. They love soccer---and I think it's their way of remembering you....I can only hope that your little cousins become half the man that you did. We love you and miss you....Cathie, Patrick and Daniel

Owen,

I still can't believe that this tragedy has happened. It has been just over a year now and I am still, daily, reminded of the craziness that we went through. You were like a second brother to me. I cannot express what you and your family have meant to me throughout the years. You were indeed my family. I will never forget you.

Love,

Owen, although I never got to know you, I know many of your fellow officers at the Flint Police Department. It is impressive to find that even in your short tenure with the Flint Police Department, all those officers I know speak of you with the highest regards. I know you are with the good lord because he stated, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." (Matthew 5:9) And, I also know that God will continue to give strenght to your family through their painful journey.

Owen,
Just over a year ago I was loading up my truck for yet again, another 4th of July vacation. You had returned from a late night shift and assured me you would watch over my home while I was gone. That is the kind of stuff you did, just because. I felt so comfortable knowing that I would have nothing to worry about while I was gone and could enjoy my vacation. Sure enough, upon my return there you were again, with that smile on your face asking how the vacation went. That is the kind of stuff you did, for all us neighbors. I have spoken with your parents on many occassions, letting them know how much we all care and still do. Sometimes when all the neighborhood kids are in my front yard playing I can remember you passing by and waving at the kids. Or even sitting on the front yard swing with your father enjoying the day. I know you are still there, watching over us all. God Bless.

Owen,
You should be so proud of your family and how strong they have been in the last year. Your parents, Katie, and Amy have done simply remarkable at keeping the wonderful memories of you alive.
Sometimes, I feel so guilty that I still have my husband but your family has lost so much. Jason and I visit your grave often, each of us saying our own prayers. My prayer is that you continue to guide and support all who love you and to keep all the officers safe.
I think we've only met a few times in person but Jason and I visit your family and have become close to them so I truly fell like I've known you for years. I'm confident that you still suit up every night in uniform but this time with wings to safely guide him home. You are his angel and every morning he's come home untouched. Keep up the good work.

Owen,
I wanted to thank you for serving and protecting your community. You are a true Hero to many, and I know you will always be remembered. I was fortunate to meet your fiancee' in D.C. during National Police Week. Amy spoke very highly of you. She also told us how happy and proud you were to be a Poice Officer. Please send Amy and your family some extra love from Heaven. I know their pain all too well. Please let them feel your loving presence today and always.
Amy, feel free to call me anytime. You and Owen's family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Sweetheart

It's been a year and I miss you every day. Your caring, your humor, your big hugs and your zest for life - they're all part of what's in my heart. Moms are supposed to be the emotional ones and I can tell you, I have lived up to that role! It's been a year of tears, laughter and wonderful memories.

There is not a day goes by that someone doesn't ask how all of us are doing and let us know how much you were cared about. We are all are grateful for the remembrances, the kindnesses and the stories. You are very much alive in so many people and that helps us so much.

I love you, O.

Keep watching over all of us.

Love,

Mom

I cant believe its been a year, it flew by in the blink of an eye. I was looking at pictures of highschool the other day and of coarse you were in alot of them and it made me sad but happy that I had you in my life. I miss you and wish you were still here, as all of us do. You will always be remembered and will never be forgotten. Love, Jillian

Last night, your mum, Katie, Jeremy and I lit a jahrzeit candle us by a Jewish friend to mark the anniversary of your passing. It burns yet this morning. Never will not be loved and remembered. There are so many empty spots in our home and lives. Know that we don't live in depression but that we live on without you in a world each day saddened by the memory of our loss. We thank God for having had you for however short a time.
Love,
Dad

Officer Fisher ...
It is hard to believe that one year has past. I attended your funeral and had such a sense of loss, and confusion, and grief... it seemed so unfair that the good guys are taken from this world so early... I stood in amazement as I watched hundreds of police officers salute you, mourn you, cry for you, hurt for you... As the procession flowed through the street to the cemetary I watched as hundreds of people stood on the curbs, sidewalks, and front porches of their homes and businesses - crying for you - saluting you - praying for you... What a sight. What a feeling of pride...
Officer Fisher - you are not forgotten. I'm sure you are looking down on us all from Heaven. We will continue to fight the good fight here on Earth... Watch over us please.

Strange it's been almost a year. Never has a year gone by so fast or in such a blur. The blur comes from such big adjustments everyone had to make since you meant so much to so many. I love you so much and as long as I'm around, you will always be remebered, talked about, and honored from the first anniversary and forever to follow.

It'll be a year in just a few days... In the strangest way its all still a bit of haze. I still think of you, love you and miss you daily... always will.
You are forever in my heart...
