Posted 10 months ago I think it would be appropriate, if we had a way to send messages to our friends on the wall. I know I talk to my friend Kieth every day. I thought maybee if I shared some of those talks with this group, maybee it will help someone in someway. Please write whatever you want to say to your friend, or even a fellow officer, whose name you have seen posted in the Names on the Wall topic. Take care my friends, and be safe. |

| Posted 10 months ago Kieth, as you know I have been talking to you about my neck injury I sustained back in August. All the doctor's told me I would never be a cop again. I took your advice, and I didn't listen to them. I worked hard. I used you as my inspiration to over come the odds. I prayed every day. I continued to ask you for your help from up there. Well old friend, I went to the doctor on Monday, and he said it is a miracle. I passed all my tests with flying colors. He was amazed how good a shape I am in. He said he never saw a recovery like mine. He actually told me I was cleared to go back to work! The sheriff's department is ready for me, and I can now continue the career I have devoted my life to. The career I love. The career that allowed me to meet a special person such as you. I know you had to make this happen. I wanted to say thank you. As we approach the 3rd aniversary of your death this year, I miss you more and more. But I make it through the day knowing that you are right beside me. I remember the last thing you said to me that day on the phone, right before you were killed. You told me, " You know I got your back dog! ". Well Kieth, I know you had it on this one. Thanks old friend. I will try to honor you by taking this second chance I was given, and be a better cop then I ever thought I could be. In your honor my friend. See you soon. |

| Posted 8 months ago Sgt. Jefferson A. Busch it wasn't but a couple weeks ago that we said goodbye. I feel that you were taken way too soon yet I know that you'll look down and keep us safe as we strap it on everyday. I thank the Lord that I got a chance to met a great person like you. Gone but never forgotten. I brought an extra can of whoop ass just in case! |

| Posted 7 months ago Dan, thank you for the lessons you tought me, a young officer still wet behind the ears. I remember our conversations so well and have repeated them often to those I have trained. I still miss you. It will be 20 years in September, not really sure how that much time past since it still feels like yesterday. When I see Brian, I see you. He is an Lt. now (who would have thunk it) I miss you my friend,. God Bless ..... LAPD Officer Daniel Pratt - EOW 9/3/88
Van... Not sure what to say to you. It still breaks my heart you are gone. I still have the picture on my desk of John, you and I that was taken on a cold XMas morning when were were all working L-cars. I think about you every day.Too much time had past between us and the distance was so evident the last time we spoke. But I know you knew how much I loved you... You were truly part of me. And the best "hugger" I knew. I love you, young gun. Rest in peace and look out for us. LAPD Officer Van Johnson - EOW 2/5/07

| Posted 3 months ago Today (9/3/08) is the 20th anniversary of my friend and partner/s EOW. Dan Pratt (LAPD) was killed by suspects who had just committed a drive by shooting. On this day 77th division dedicated a memorial to Dan and six other 77th division officers who have been killed in the line of duty. The remaining four members of our unit were present, along with Dan's wife and now grown children. The last time I saw his children two of them were just older then toddlers and the 3rd not even born yet. His mother and brother were also present. It was a beautiful day, dedicated to true heros. But there was indeed a but of sadness when I thought about how much the world and LAPD missed out on, with Dan's demise.So on this anniversary I just wanted to say to Dan that I miss you my friend, I have thought about you every day, for the last 20 years and will continue to remember you always. Thank you for being you and for sharing your knowledge along with yourself. Sleep peacefully my friend, until we meet again. I love you brother.
