  • Officer Shaun Diamond

    Not Forgotten

    In Honor of Officer Shaun Diamond

    Hard to believe it's ten years since that morning. Feels like it was yesterday and that it was a bad dream. You deserved the life that was taken from you but you died getting after it. That is the full measure of a man! You won't be forgotten.

  • Sergeant Marvin R. Kline

    Happy Birthday

    In Honor of Sergeant Marvin R. Kline

    You would have been 85 years old this beautiful fall day and we all would have been celebrating it with you. I miss you so much, you are always in my heart and always will be. I listen to your favorite country singer Patsy Cline all the time. I know all her songs by heart. Half my heart dead the day you did. It is very difficult to live happily with half a heart. You are loved and missed very much, every day and always will be intil the day I die. You better be there to meet me when I do. I have a bunch of jokes that will crack you up. I have one big hug to give you too…

  • Sergeant Steve Owen

    Recovering Addict

    In Honor of Sergeant Steve Owen

    Deputy (Sergeant) Owen was one of my BIGGEST inspirations to get clean. He treated me like a PERSON not an addict. He cared and helped me change my life. I've been clean since 1998.

  • Officer Oscar J. Bryant

    Ex sister in law

    In Honor of Officer Oscar J. Bryant

    Pepper,

    I remember all the girls at Crispus Attucks having a crush on you which you did not ignore! Furthermore, it was the same with your brother Joe (who I married) with which we had 6 children, naming our forth child after you, Oscar Bryant and his nick name is of course Pepper. All of Joe (little brother as you called him) and our children know the ULTIMATE sacrifice you made! I remember the last words said to you by Joe, as you left us for the last time returning to California "big brother, take care and don't be a hero" but you were!! Well, little brother and big brother are now together (Joe died 4-9-2020) beside our God almighty!!!!

    Cheers with Tears…

    In Honor of Sergeant Marvin R. Kline

    Marvin Ray Kline,
    You are not forgotten. You are missed. You were taken far too soon. Memories of you flood my heart. I have missed you every minute, hour, day, month, year, you have been gone. Your birthday, every holiday, the day you were taken from us. Your big, contagious smile, your sense of humor, telling jokes. People do not tell jokes any more. They have forgotten how. No more Funny Farm to go to, listen and dance to country music. They tried with the Crystal Palace however, it was not like The Funny Farm. Too fancy, not really good ol’ country. Never cared for it. No more Boot Scootin bars out there anymore. I have no idea what there are thinking with country music anymore. Great country music is gone too. I listen only to oldies. Cannot stand this new Aggy stuff they put out.
    Nothing to miss there. Life is very boring without you in it. I miss you so much, I will miss you for the rest of my life. I really hate the month of August. It just hits me right in the gut, hard, I lose it, I actually lose it. Yet, as I look around life goes on, just like the day this happened. My life broke in half, right down the middle, gut- wrenching rip. I miss you…

  • Officer Richard A. Phillips

    Honor

    In Honor of Officer Richard A. Phillips

    I can not get through these 2 officers stories without crying. I agree with carolyn phillips and keith curtis. Mason had 45 years to come forward and he was 24 years old. He knew right from wrong. He made his decisions and they were wrong with families hurting. Officer phillips i honor you for shooting the man that shot and killed you and officer curtis. I wish we could find ways to protect the men and women who protect us. I am so sorry the officers children grew up without their dads. Thank you to the team who wouldnt stop even when it felt you just couldnt solve this. I honor and salute you.
