Reflections for Patrol Officer John Edwin Hollingsworth

Dad just wanted to say good morning to you. Today reminded me of you so much. It is a beautiful spring morning the birds are singing the kids are sleeping. David has a friend that stayed the night and Destiny is going to a friends house today. Sherman and I are going to do this 26 mile yard sale today. I still love old antiques. I wish you had been here with us today and every day. I love you so much.

Dad I just want to salute you and say thank you for all you have done for your family and country. I would live to update your profile but since I was young when you passed away they made your ex wife executive of your estate even though I was the only survivor and she kept everything including your flag and your badge and all your pictures she even kept your ashes. I just have our memories. I love you so much.
