Reflections for Police Officer Brian Wayne Jones

I am Roger Lynch's sister. It is with much respect and sadness that I add my condolences today. I pray that your family- although never the same has moved on and is happy. I know that "you Brian" would want that. I pray that your children have grown up big and strong and that they are a fine example of their loving daddy as well as their dear mama. Rebekah, our family knows your pain too well. You are in our prayers especially today. I don't know if you knew- but today was also Roger's birthday. I believe with all my heart that Brian and my brother are enjoying heaven with a joy that we have yet to know. Some day we will all be together again. With (((hugs))) and prayers. Judy Coleman

I remember in the HBN course when you told us the story of you taking the tractor and harvesting the corn! That was an awesome story! Made everybody in the room laugh! I didn't get a chance to ride with you, but I did have the pleasure of taking with you in several occasions and getting to know you! Thank you for the great memories!

Dear Officer Jones and Family. On May 9-12, 2015, I will be riding my bicycle in your memory and honor, in the Police Unity Tour, Chapter 1 Jersey ride, 300 miles from New Jersey into the Memorial in DC. Your service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Hey Brian. I was thinking about the night when I was a rookie and my FTI made me ride with you in hopes of getting a DUI for the check off sheet. We never got one, but I remember that night and our conversation like it was yesterday. I also remeber you using the word "stinkin" like it was your middle name. Miss You.

I can only imagine the pain you are going through. I hope you will take comfort in knowing that Brian’s love for you will live on forever. You and your children will be in my prayers and I promise you Brian, his service and sacrifice will not be forgotten.

To Bryson, Mariah and Kyler
I hope someday you will understand that your father died protecting the freedoms most people take for granted. As you grow up, never question your father's love for you. He died doing his very best to make the world you will grow up in a better, safer place.

To my brothers and sisters of the Norfolk Police Department
My heart goes out to all of you. Go forward with the knowledge that you are filling in the gap of the Thin Blue Line left by Brian’s death. I know you will carry on the mission;, following the example of professionalism Brian’s sacrifice provides. You know how important our role is in keeping our community safe.

It's a tragic shame that police officers are killed in this country by the same people we are hired to serve and protect. We don't like it, but expect this when our military goes to war and are killed by enemy forces...... however these are our own citizens who are killing our police officers......terrible! I have attended too many funerals and I pray all who have fallen in the line of duty are given a special place in the after life...they have earned it !

I had not known Brian on a personal level outside work, but I did have the pleasure of working with him on several occasions. He always was proactive, helping everyone in the community and treating everyone with respect. He would always focus on juveniles, trying to get them on the right track in life. He was the first person I had ever met that nobody had anything bad to say about, ever. After his death, I heard so many great stories about how he didnt even have TV in his home because he did not want his children influenced in the wrong way. All around great guy and awesome father. So unfortunate what happened that night... May his wife, children and family find peace...

So sad to have heard this news today, I wish to thank you for your service, although I am writing you from Canada, you have served the community where my sister, brother in law and two kids live. I truly thank you for keeping them safe, putting your life on the line and suffering the ultimate cost. For your family I can't begin to understand but be sure the family of police for you stretches far. My prayers go out to your family, may they be strong during these hard time.

On behalf of the Westerville, Ohio Division of Police, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Police Officer Brian Jones and the extended law enforcement family of the Norfolk, Virginia Police Department. Rest in Peace brother and watch over us.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

We are terribly sorry this happened on our street. We are grieving so much on our street. I'm the one that made and put up the Cross at the corner of Pennington and Wellington Rd. and I hope this little memorial will help comfort and heal all those that are affected by this since less tragedy. God Bless this family and all the NPD

Officer Jones,

Rest well in the arms of the Lord.


To Your Family,

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray:

“Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are Your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with Your angels, loving family, friends, neighbors and caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name and for Your Glory, Amen.”

I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for over three years. Feel those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.

Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.
