Miss you brother.

Thanks for all the great memories.

We're in a pandemic today and our country is tearing itself apart. People hate Police. Very sad.

Wish you were here so we could laugh at better things.

I remember my dawg like it was yesterday and I somehow think he is responsible for my being able to reconcile my guilt at failing to find a solution that night that would have saved his life. I thank him for the good times and I wish his wife and daughter nothing but the best that life has to offer them! I still think about you!

John was a childhood friend of mine that I played baseball with for several years. I lost close contact with John when we entered highschool and he went to a private school. The last time I spoke to John was when I was looking into becoming a police officer after graduating from college. I'll never forget that conversation with John, he gave me the inspiration to become a law enforcement officer. 16 years now I've been on the job and I think of John often. In 2013 I am riding in the Police Unity Tour, I'll be riding for John. Although John passed away before I was hired by the Maryland State Police I hope he knows that I have been standing the Thin Blue Line with him. R.I.P John

John,
I enjoyed our time working together in Ocean City. You always made me laugh. Although I only knew you for a short time, you made a lasting impression.

Hey brother,

You know I've missed you, but I wanted to thank you for helping me out these past years. I'm a lot wiser, but I knew you'd never really leave me behind. Still, I miss our craziness taking calls in G-Sector.

By the way, I finally got to "Facebook" Lauren. She seems very nice. Oh yeah, "Facebook" is a new thing. All todays' kids love it. I have to admit I found a lot of old Police buddies in there.

Again, thanks.

As February begins, I always look forward to Mary, Amy and Jeff's birthdays. However, never far from my mind is the single greatest loss of our family that took place on the 28th. We lost a son, nephew, husband, father, brother, cousin, and friend. We had dreams and many years of expected joy to look forward to. Growing old in the same way we as we lived our first twenty odd years was a given - if only we knew what could be taken from us. I remember the pain as if it was a moment ago ..... yet I remember more. I remember the occasions that lift me up when I think life is difficult. I remember vacationing in OC, breaking the rules on Cape Cod, going out in college when we should have been studying, driving cars with no brakes for four hundred miles cause you said "you promised your grandmother" ..... I remember basketball games with your dad on sweet summer nights even if Laura didn't want to play, coming home sick from school when we came to visit, making you walk fifty blocks in OC because you wouldn't apologize for an inconsequential slight. I can only say, we miss you terribly. I think of you every day and especially every night. I tuck in my son named for you and say a prayer that God takes care of you and your family - and what a special family you have. You'd truly be proud of Lauren and Nancy. I know I am. More than anything, I remember you and the person you are. Not sure if there was ever a kinder, gentler, more unselfish person that ever lived. On the seventeenth anniversary of your passing, I want you to know that many, many people are impacted by your life and the way you led it. Be safe and be reassured, you are remembered. Talk to you tomorrow.

-Pete
