Reflections for Officer Jason Wayne Cammack
HEY JAY,
I STILL MISS YOU LIKE HELL!!! WHERE HAVE 7 YEARS GONE? IT HURTS AS MUCH TODAY AS IF IT HAS JUST HAPPENED. I ALWAYS WONDER WHAT YOU AND HAYDEN WOULD BE DOING TOGETHER. WHAT KIND OF TROUBLE THAT YOU ALL WOULD BE GETTING INTO. I KNOW IT WOULDN'T BE GOOD. I KNOW YOU. AND YOUR SON IS JUST LIKE YOU. THE OTHER DAY IT HAD SNOWED JUST A LITTLE BIT AND THERE WAS A ENOUGH TO MAKE A SMALL SNOWBALL AND HE SAID AUNT JEN I WANT A HUG AND KISS BYE, BUT OF COURSE THE SNOWBALL WENT ALL OVER ME. THEN I GUESS HE FELT BAD SO HE DID GIVE ME A HUG. I JUST LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND HIS LITTLE SISSY. JASON, SHE IS SO SWEET AND FUNNY THEY ARE SO CUTE TOGETHER. I JUST LOVE THEM BOTH SO MUCH. WELL, ENOUGH OF ME BEING SAD, I NEED TO TELL SOME THINGS. EMILY IS DOING GREAT, SHE HAS BEEN TAKEN AWAY FROM ME FOR AWHILE. SHE IS AT "KELA CAMMACK'S BOOT CAMP". SHE HAS A HARD TIME GETTING UP IN THE MORNINGS SO SHE HAS BEEN LATE FOR SCHOOL TO MANY TIMES. SO NANNY SAID I CAN'T HAPPEN NO MORE, IT IS NOT ME IT IS HER SHE IS TO SLEEPY IN THE MORNING TO GET UP. SHE DUSTED MOM'S WHOLE HOUSE ON SATURDAY AND MOM LOVED THAT. AND SHE HAS BEEN GETTING TO SCHOOL ON TIME SINCE SHE HAS BEEN THERE. SHE IS SO FUNNY, AND SHE REMINDS ME OF YOU SO MUCH. SHE IS RUNNING TRACK AND I LOOK OUT THERE ON THE FIELD AND SHE STANDS JUST LIKE YOU DID. SHE WANTS TO PLAY SCOCCER NEXT YEAR, AND I TOLD HER THAT IS WHEN YOU STARTED PLAYING, SOPHMORE YEAR. SO SHE IS REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. I HOPE SHE WILL LIKE IT. SHE LOVES TRACK. GAYLE HAS STARTED GOING TO CHURCH, I AM SO GLAD. WE HAVE BEEN GOING TO TODD LESTERS CHURCH AT THE FORKS. WE REALLY LIKE IT. MOM AND DAD ARE DOING GOOD THEY MISS YOU LIKE CRAZY, LIKE WE ALL DO. JUST THINK NEXT MONTH YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN 34 YEARS OLD. DANG, THAT IS OLD. WELL, I GUESS I STILL HAVE YOU BEAT. DANNY IS LOSING WEIGHT HE HAS LOST 18 POUNDS I AM SO PROUD OF HIM. I WAS REALLY WORRIED ABOUT HIM BECAUSE OF HIS HEART. HE REALLY LOOKS GOOD. I HAVEN'T SEEN CHRISTA LATELY, I MISS NOT SEEING HER AND THE KIDS. WE ALL LOVE HER SO MUCH. I AM SO GLAD SHE IS STILL IN OUR LIVES. SHE IS A DOLL. WELL, I COULD TALK TO YOU ALL DAY ABOUT NOTHING. AND I AM SORRY THAT I HAVEN'T TALKED TO YOU IN A WHILE. I'LL TALK TO YOU SOON. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER AND EVER. LOVE YA AND MISS YOU LIKE CRAZY.

Jason,
I, along with countless others, have you heavy on my mind today. As time has worn away the sharpness of your sudden departure, I generally reflect upon my time with you with a smile on my face and a giggle in my heart. The times I feel sadness I know it is only for me because I miss having you around. You and Christa were great friends to my family and I thank you for that. I think of Christa and Hayden often. Although our paths have diverged I am always glad to run into them in town or hear something about them. I see your parents and sister sometimes in town and it is like having a part of your spirit present. There is no doubting their love for you.
I have many interesting events in my life since you have been gone, but I miss having you around to share in the good times and lean on in the rough times.

You will never be forgotten!
Love you, me.

Jason,
I wanted to let you know that we are thinking of you today. It is unbelievable to me that it has been 7 years since you left us. I hope you know that we keep you in our thoughts and prayers all the time. You truly will never be forgotten. It is so hard to read the reflections others have left; you were loved by so many people in your short 26 years. Each time I leave a reflection, I always think it will be less painful. It never is.
I have seen your mom and dad a few times recently. They are such special people - no wonder you turned out so well. I haven't seen Christa in forever, though I think of her often. I drove through the old neighborhood the other day & was overwhelmed with memories of some of the most simple things we all used to do. None of us had much money at the time, but we could have fun doing absolutely nothing - just as long as we were together. There's not much I wouldn't give to go back to spend just one day with all of us hanging out. How did we not realize then how precious that time in our lives would be?
We love and miss you as much today as ever.
Jennifer, Chad & Jana

Our Sweet Angel in heaven we want you to know how much you are missed. When I went to bed 7 years ago I prayed my prayer I pray every night that we all would be safe and wake for another day. This night my prayer wasn't answered. I still am praying this prayer with the faith that we will be safe and wake for another day. If it wasn't for my faith I would not be able to get up each and every morning. A light will placed at your grave site today in remerance of that horrible night 7 years ago today. Our love goes out to you and will always have you in our hearts. Thank the God Lord we had 26 wonderful years with you and will be together again someday. God will get us through this but, it seems it gets harder than easier to know you will never be coming home again. God Bless and know YOU ARE MISSED AND LOVED very much.

Wow little buddy, it has been almost 7 years. I think of you often. And when I do I get a smile on my face, but my heart is still heavy. You will always be remember around the Snapp household. My dog Sarge is still alive, but he is old now and I doubt he would growl at you like he used to. I think you would be friends now. You and your family will always be in my prayers. Take care........Darrell

Easter Sunday my Precious when you left us 7 years ago. Easter will never be the same. THe reminder of that horrible day that started out so wonderful. Our family all together having dinner, hiding easter eggs for the children, taking pictures of each family together not knowing that would be my last picture of you. It hangs on the wall of my office area at school. Life is so short and precious we don't know when someone we loave will leave us. We should all be prepared and be so very loving to the ones we love. There will never be any regrets in the way you were brought up during your wonderful 26 years with us. You were loved so much from the time you were born and as much today. Love is a wonderful word and this is the way you are thought of each day. God is great, God is love bye my sweet...

Another Sunday goes by and this day isn't any better than any other Sunday. You left us on a Sunday and each week when it comes it is a reminder of the sadness we have had to endure for going on 7 long years. Hayden had his first soccer game yesterday unfortunately they lost but he gave it his all. It was a cold day but a beautiful day. He spent the day with us and as ALWAYS we enjoyed our time with him. On Tuesday we will go to his Upward basketball awards program. There the children will all receive an award for participating in the season. Hayden had a great time and did well. He is going to be playing baseball in a few weeks and only if you could be here to see how your sweet angel has grown and how much he enjoys life. He is a joy to be around like you ALWAYS were. May Gods Speed be with you and till we see you in Heaven please know YOU ARE LOVED AS MUCH TODAY AS 7 YEARS AGO. You will Never be Forgotten...

You continue to be in our thoughts each day. You are missed, thought of, spoken of and loved each day. Your memory will remain deep within our hearts, a place that can not be filled again.
We need you and you aren't here. I still don't understand why. I feel for each person who has lost someone in the war, or due to sickness or accidents on the news. It breaks my heart to think of the pain they will have to endure at the loss of their loved one.
Hayden is doing very well, handsome and smart. He has really great friends. Watch over him, and keep him safe with me. I don't want him with you for a very long time.
I can't believe we are almost at 7 years without you. It still hurts to have you gone.
You are loved so much - christa

Too often we take for granted those who protect us and serve us with no regard for their own safety. It takes a special person to bring about in themselves the selflessness of putting others before themselves. I did not know this man but am a friend of his cousin and just wanted to give my condolences to the family. Even though a stranger to me he gave the ultimate sacrifice for the good of others. My prayers are with you.

Love to you today, tomorrow and FOREVER. I thank The Lord everyday for 26 wonderful years with you. Our wonderful memories of your beautiful smile, great personality and love keeps us going each and everday. A day doesn't go by that you aren't remembered. We miss and love you so much.

This past Saturday was Hayden's first Upward basketball game and dad I want you to know you would have been so Proud of him. He made 12 points. His little face was so sweet it lit up like a Christmas tree each and everytime he made a goal. Oh how I wish you were here to see how he has grown and what a good boy he is. You would be so Proud of him Jay and Christa is so wonderful with him. Love to you my sweet Angel.

Merry Christmas Our Angel. Here it is December 31st and as I sit here waiting for another year to go by it doesn't make it any easier losing you. Our holidays went on as usual family and friends and you in our hearts. I have been off work since December the 21st and will go back January the 8th so I can get back in the routine of getting out of the house and try to get my mind on my job. You are never away from me you are here 24-7 and if it wasn't for the Wonderful memories I couldn't get through a day. Daddy is so wonderful he grieves too and so does Jen and Gayle and our dear family. Precious Hayden is doing well he was on the honor roll the Headmasters Honor Roll at school. He is like you smart and just Precious. He is surely Loved by all just like his daddy. Sweetness God Bless and till we meet again We will Always Love You Forever and Ever.

Officer Cammack,
Sir, I never knew you, however you made this state a better place for my family and yours. I pray your wife and son find peace in God. I will also pray for your family tonight. You are missed but not forgotten. Blessed are the peace makers, they can be called the children of GOD.

REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but a two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.
“IT IS IN DEATH THAT WE CAN LIVE FOREVER”

As I sit here trying to write how I feel, I find it difficult to express my feelings about friends lossing someone they love with every fiber of their soul. I have known your family all of my life, and you are wonderful, Christian people with such big hearts. Kela, you and your husband raised your children to love and respect others and that is why Jason is being honored by so many people. He was a fine young man who loved his family and friends with everything he had and it showed to anyone who came into contact with him. I truly believe God gives us special angels to watch over us, and Jason is now yours. I can never begin to imagine the pain you are going through, but knowing you will see him again seems to give you great comfort. You are all very special to me, and I love you dearly. Jason, as well as all of you, will always be remembered in my prayers.
