I have the honor of mentoring your lovely daughter.
She is so very proud of being your daughter. I look forward to building a strong bond with her and be a positive support for her. Officer Haymaker, you will never be forgotten.

I pray that everyone can find peace in knowing that we will see this officer as well as many others again in Paradise soon. Until then, please accept my condolences.

I had the pleasure of meeting Sgt. Haymaker at several fire scenes in the old 23rd District. He was a super nice guy who had the respect of other officers.

I pray he still continues to rest in peace and I will say a prayer for him today.

I come to the ODMP often to remember my late fiancé Dennis. Every time I come here it breaks my heart to know that yet another officer has fallen and that yet another family has to live their lives without the officer they loved. My heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved Sergeant Haymaker. Know that you are not alone in the "journey" that you walk. Should you ever need anything please don't hesitate to contact me. (The Davis Co. Sheriff's Office in Iowa will always know how to reach me. I can also be found on Face Book.) You will be in my thoughts.

From reading the reflections left for Alan, he sounds like he was a great man with a beautiful spirit. Those of you who knew him in life were so blessed to have been able to share in it. I hope that you will all continue to find a way to celebrate and remember Alan's life and the MAN that he was. Remember that Alan's life was about so much more than the way he died. Alan will continue to live on as long as we continue to remember him.

Sergeant Haymaker, thank you for helping to make this world a little safer for us all. YOU will not be forgotten. Please continue to watch over all of us as only you can. If you happen to bump into my late fiancé Dennis up there give him a big hug for me and the kids. It's been seven years and a half years but he's still very much missed and forever loved.

Wishing you brighter and better days,


Jocelyne :)
