hello bear the summer is coming to a fast end and i am glad. brandon will be starting middle school. please show him you will be with him as he enters this new part of life which will be confusing at times. he enjoyed summer camp and started football for the 3rd year on tuesday. i am trying to keep him involved in the things that i know you would have. it isnot easy at times. he misses you so much words cannot desribe what i see in his face. although brandon and i do some of the things you would have done with him, it is no where near the same as you doing it. i will continue to keep your boy as you called him involved in the things you would have wanted him to be in. he is going to make both of us proud someday. when i look at that boy, i see you all over him from head to toe. it is a little scary at times how he is so much like you in his actions and words. thank you for leaving me a part of you i can see everyday and hug. sometimes when i ask brandon to give me a hug,it is to have a little reminder of you and he says the same thing you use to say. all my love your lulu

Dear Brian,

It's been two years today that the lord has called you home to be with him and I have been missing you ever since. I never really got the chance to tell you how much I admire you in so many ways, especially when you joined the police force. As a little girl I always wanted to be one and when I learned that you finally made it, I was so proud of you- and still is. Sometimes it's hard for me to even see an officer drive by thinking it will be you honking the horn or yelling out my name on the intercom embrassing me in front of everybody. I miss the good times we all had togather joking and laughing. I just want to let you know how much I always love you and to thank you for always being there for me, and The memories I have of you are the ones I will hold onto and remember forever until I leave this earth and finally be home with you. Love You!!!!!

Brian,

I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and your family, friends, and co-workers today. Your situation impacted my life personally. In the ten years Duke and I were together I had only seen him shed tears a handful of times. One of those times was over you. When Duke got home from your funeral, I will never forget what he said to me. He said, "that got to me." I then asked him, "what got to you?" He then poured his heart out about the entire day. From that conversation, he and I were also able to talk more in-depth about the "what if's" and what we wanted for each other should he be taken at work just as you were. As many times as I had tried to get him to elaborate on his out of the blue “if I get killed in the line of duty” remarks, who would have thought that the last time he and I would talk about it would have been all because of you and your situation and how everything Duke and I talked about that evening would change my life forever two and a half weeks later. Thank you Brian. Continue to keep watch over everyone from above.

Lorrie,

I am at a loss for words right now, but I know sometimes the best things said are the things that we don't say. From our conversations, you know what I am talking about. Just know I am thinking of all of you today as I do every day. Thank you for your friendship and for making me laugh. Love ya lady!

i am at a lost for words to say on this day. you know what i am feeling and thinking as you always did when you were here. if you can send brandon a sign to let him know you are with him today and everyday, i think that would help him. i know you are always with me every second of the day and night. i love you my bear and will be with you someday when God is ready for me. i know you will be with me in spirit until that day comes. all my love your best friend forever. till we meet again! love your lulu

i didnot think it was wise for brandon to write to you on this website for fathers day because it wasnot happy for him. he is a strong youngman like you but he is having a hard time. he shows it in his eyes. he misses you so deeply. this coming week will be hard for him as well as me. he likes his summer camp and he is doing and learning a lot of things. i don't know how to end this letter to you. love you always. your best friend lulu

Hey B, I know that I said that I wouldn't write to you on this board but I am overwhelmed with emotions. I know that you are sitting with Byrd both of you showing your teeth. I cant explain the sadness, the helplessness and the hurt that I am experiencing with the lost of you two. I had just went to mother's day dinner with Byrd and his wife, went on vacation and the day that I was to come back to work, Byrd was killed. This department has disgusted me in ways that I cant put into words. But I must remember that I can't expect anything from this agency but only through the power of God and prayer. It saddens me to see your families not have you here anymore and that there is nothing that I can do to help. If I could just get my head together and my heart free from the hurt, maybe I could sleep easier and do what I need to do to make it through. I pray that you keep your families close and I pray for comfort in their hearts. Brian, you and Byrd watch over us please. I miss you!

Lorrie,

Last Thursday, I met many wonderful officers from the Police Unity Tour as they were headed to Annapolis from the Bay Bridge. One officer by the name of Scott asked me about you and the kids (he had met you at a ceremony for Brian months ago if I am not mistaken. A really sweet and thoughtful guy. He will continue to keep all of you in his thoughts. So will I.

Happy Mother's Day Lorrie!

Love,

I CAN REMEBER MEETING BRIAN IN 1996 AS HE BECAME MY FEILD TRAINING OFC. TO BE HONEST AT THAT TIME I DIDNT LIKE HIM VERY MUCH. HIS APPROACH TO POLICE WORK WAS VERY STRANGE TO ME. IF YOU READ ALL OF THE ARTICLES ABOUT HIS ATTITUDE TOWARDS HIS NEIGHBORHOOD IT WAS VERY VERY VERY TRUE. I HAD AN ATITUDE PROBLEM MYSELF WHEN I GRADUATED FROM THE POLICE ACADEMY; AND HONESTLY HE TRIED TO GET ME TERMINATED BECAUSE I WOULDN'T CALM DOWN IN THE WAY I DID MY POLICING. AFTER WE TALKED AND HE POINTED ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION I FOLLOWED HIS FOOTSTEPS; AND FOR THE REST OF MY CAREER BEFORE I RETIRED IN 2005 FROM AN INJURY I BELIEVE HE CHANGE MY LIFE!!!!!!!! SO I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU BRIAN FOR GIVING ME THE KNOWLEDGE AND SPIRIT TO POLICE THE CORRECT WAY. BRIAN WINDER SHOULD BE THE BLUEPRINT OF HOW TO POLICE WERE AS A COMMUNITY CAN BELIEVE IN THERE POLICE DEPRTMENT AGAIN. GOD BLESS YOU(I'M SURE YOU HAVE A PLACE IN HEAVEN)AND YOUR FAMILY.........826 WILL NEVER BE 10-7 IN MY HEART!!!!!!!
