Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Owen - There is not a day that goes by that my husband and I don't talk about you. Words can't explain the effect you have on our family. May your family have peace in knowing the profound mark you left on this world.

Take Care

Big "O",
Heya, darlin'. Ive been thinking about you like crazy for the past couple days. I want to tell you that I miss you but it seems such a small sentiment for the way I feel. I didnt see you much but I miss knowing you were somewhere being "O".
I look at my son turning one tomorrow and I pray for your mom. I love her, too and I can only think that we had you for such a short time. Trust ya big sis and know it wasnt long enough.
I love you and I miss you...

Hi Sweetheart
Tonight I got to talk about you and how you believed so strongly in what you were doing and how proud you were to be a Flint cop. No tears - I know you hate that. It felt good to be able to share your commitment to your job and your hope for a better city. I'm so proud of you and I miss you so much.
Love, Mom

It's a gray day. I took some shirts to the cleaners, and one of yours was mixed in, another reminder. I drove home in a blur hoping the defiant sun would come out. It's bad enough without that gold, and you.
Love,
Dad

Thank you for your outstanding performance protecting our community. I am sorry you paid the ultimate price for it. Even though we didn't know each other you and all the other officers fallen and non fallen are a great inspiration to me. I am an aspiring student who dreams one day that he will become an officer. Thank you officer owen fisher may you rest in peace and your loved ones are safe and cared for.

I just wanted to leave my thoughts about Owen here. I didn't know Owen long but I was one of his training officers. I had just worked with him the previous week (or 4 to 5 day stretch) with him, and it was my weekend off; and unfortunately, not his. We worked 3rd shift, and I remember leaving the next morning, asking him if he was ready to walk out. He told me "You go ahead, I've gotta finish this paperwork" (D.O.R.'s). I asked him if he had to work the weekend and he told me yes. I said something like "Not me, have fun" in a sarcastic manner, never realizing it would be the last time I'd see him. That night he worked, he passed. But I wanted to share with the family a few things that I experienced with Owen.

I remember Owen telling me he only had to work this last weekend in Traffic, and he was going to our CATT squad (a uniformed position that reponds to "in progress" calls). Owen was very excited and couldn't wait to start it. For a newer officer, its like a kid in a candy store.

I can remember being on a call with Owen when we were dealing with a guy that must have thought we were just born yesterday (lie after lie). I played along with the guy, responding with "Are you kidding me Sir? Owen didn't know what to think. I think he was thinking "You know he's lying right?" Needless to say, we took his complaint, per policy ;) But Owen was just cracking up when we got back in the car.

Anyway, I hope the family and friends are doing good and may God bless you. Take care Owen, we all miss you. We'll see you on the other side one day. :)

Dear Amy,
I wanted to check up on you...I am thinking of you and Owen's family. These times are so hard, I know. Trust that Owen watches over you and smiles on you from above. I know that you miss Owen with every breath that you take, just as I miss Josh. Know that I'm here for you always, lifting you up in prayer. I'll talk to you soon.

Owen,
Continue to send your love, from above, to Amy and your family. They need you so much. These first few months without you are so hard. Let them know you're with them always.

Much love,
Kelly

Fish, I can remember to this day how excited you were when you called me to tell me about your first foot chase. You said that you could not explain how good it felt to catch the suspect. It is Christmas night and I just had my first foot pursuit. I now know what you meant about the feeling you get when the suspect is cuffed. I wish that I could be telling you this face to face. Marc and I still crack up when we talk about the academy and how you made the whole experience an adventure. Nobody knew what you were going to say next, but EVERYBODY knew that it would be funny. There is not a shift that goes by that I don't think about you and just laugh at the times that we shared.
To Amy and the rest of the family I hope that you are all doing well and know that Owen will live forever in all of us.

Family, Friends, Co-Workers, and Loved Ones of P.O. Owen Fisher---My deepest and sincere condolences to you all for the loss of a great man. May you all find comfort in the memories you shared with Owen. My thoughts and prayers are with you all this Holiday Season.

P.O. Owen Fisher,
Thank you for your service...for your dedication to protect your community at all costs. You will forever be remembered. Your memory will live on inside the hearts of those who love you. Continue to shine your love on your family and Amy....

Dear Amy,
My heart breaks for you. I know that your hopes, dreams, and plans have all been shattered. I cannot express in words how sorry I am for the loss of your beloved Owen. I was engaged to Deputy Sheriff Joshua Blyler (EOW: 5.2.04) who was killed in an on-duty autobolie accident last year. I know and understand the pain that you carry with you every day. I know there aren't any words that I can say to take that pain away, but I do want you to know that you are not alone. I hate that we have met under such horrible circumstances, but at the same time, I am so glad to have met you so that we can support each other through these devastating tragedies. I am thrilled that you were able to contact Monica and get connected with the OfficerDownSignificantOther group. We are here for you always...whenever you need us. Cling tight to the memories you and Owen shared together. Those memories are precious beyond measure. I know that every day is a challenge, but we are in this together. You, your family, and Owen's family will be in my thoughts and prayers this holiday season. I'm sending you a hug from FL, Amy. I will be in touch soon.

Much love,
Kelly

Mom and I were just talking about how strange this Christmas is going to be with two members missing from dinner. I miss you so much right now. I have to brave the family Xmas alone. Who am I going to crack jokes with? It's those little things that make me think of you. When I think of something inappropriate/funny to say this weekend, I'll know you're with me.
I love you!

O-
I feel so fortunate to have been able to spend a few hours with you and catch up before we lost you. You were my oldest buddy...21 years is a long time....ever since preschool. I think about you everytime I see an officer at work, halfway expecting it to be you standing there, God I wish it was. Your time here was too short, but you touched countless lives and will live on in our hearts forever. I'll visit again soon. Love and miss you much.
