Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Jason,

Hi sweetheart! I am sitting at the computer very late tonight and had you on my mind. This year you would have turned thirty years old! I cannot believe it...I remember how I used to hide all the birthday decorations for your big day so the little man and I could decorate the whole house while you were at work. I would stay awake as long as possible so I could see you come home and capture that happy look on your face and in your eyes. I really miss being able to do that for you. I miss not having you here so that our son could help me carry on such a fun tradition we had. I still laugh at the funny stuff you did when you decorated for my birthday! It was so sweet and it was definitely the thought that counted! (smile)

With Christmas getting so close, I have found it a bit difficult finding the "Holiday spirit" this year. I was so touched when you gave me the "Best present ever!". I think back to the stories you had about our little man helping pick out the color, the way you had to wait and INSIST on the big red bow...You were so sneaky and it was one of the nicest, kindest, most thoughtful, sweet, and loving things you did for me. It came from the heart and you put so much of you into it. See, there I go, crying at the computer...

I miss you so much and I wish I could have you home. I would trade anything to have you here for one more day. I wish that we had had the opportunity for so many more memories and so many more smiles, hugs, kisses, and love. I promise you that not one single day will ever go by that I don't think about you and smile...and wish you were here. I listen to the few tape recordings I have of your voice and I love when I hear our son say, "That's my daddy!" We miss you so much!!!

I hope I see you in my dreams tonight...

All my love to you sweetheart, now and forever.

We never met. We would certainly have been friends. There is nothing I can say here that is worthy however much I wish for the ability to make things better.

Just know that your good example is real and strong in the present time. I resolve to be that much better a husband and father. I see a police officer and silently wish them every safety.

Tara, you and Jason and your sons are in my thoughts and prayers and always will be.

Jason,

I did not have the luxury of knowing you, but I was friends with Eric. I left Phoenix to come home to Pennsylvania last year, and I am now faced with the loss of yet another brother. Please show Upper Saucon Township Officer David Petzold the way, I know you will get along fine.

To Jason's wife Tara,

I found myself reading each and every reflection of Officers White, Uribe, and Jason. You wrote in one that you don't know why you keep writing, and that you think it is the best way to reach him. Don't stop writing. Everybody needs to remember what heros our friends and officers are. I cried as I read each and every one of your reflections. I will never forget. Your devotion is just as heroic as anything we do.

Sweetheart,

Time has been going so fast since I attended the Spouses' retreat in September. I had such a positive experience. I was able to get in touch with some other police widows that I had meet during my first trip to National Police Week. I spend hours talking to a few very special women and I hope we can continue our new friendship. I wonder if you are hanging out with any of their husbands? I think you had quite a bit in common with some of them...

We have entered into the second time of year that is extremely difficult for me. There are so many special days that we experienced in November and December that no matter what is going on, I feel like I am sitting and reflecting on one of our special days. I continue to keep track of our special days and cannot help but buy cards and cute objects that I would have been giving to you had it not been for what happened to you. I have had this special sentiment carried over to our little angel. I hope you have been receiving those gifts he has been sending! I feel confident that you have. He loves to talk about Daddy and send Daddy gifts.

Things have not been so great for someone we know. Please help out and point her in the right direction. I know we can only offer so much assistance here on Earth. Thank you honey! I could and always will be able to count on you!

Have you seen the new dirtbike? Isn't it awesome! He loves it so much. Oh, not to mention all the safety gear! I laugh so hard whenever he gets dressed and tries to walk to the dirtbike! Such a funny sight! I gave your mom a picture with all the gear on! It reminded her alittle bit of you. I even found a mini Duck! I think Santa will be visiting the house this year with a special Duck! I could not believe it when I saw it. It was exactly what you had wanted!!! It still amazes me.

I miss you very much. I still spend time every day thinking about you and wishing you were here with us. Do you like the new tat? It is the same basic idea that we kept talking about but alittle different. I could not get the exact thing...it was just to difficult. I love you sweetheart. I love you so much. You will always have that special piece of my heart...Now and forever sweet man!

See you in my dreams!
XXOO,

Your loving wife! T. Wolfe

ASCENSION

And if I go,
While you’re still here---
Know that I live on,
Vibrating to a different measure
--behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me,
So you must have faith.
I wait for the time when we can soar together again,
--both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to its fullest.
And when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart,
…I will be there.

To the family and loved ones of Police Officer Jason Alan Wolfe and his fellow officers with the Pheonix Police Department:

On this the second anniversary of Jason's tragic death, I wanted to honor and remember him today. Jason's professionalism and dedication will never be forgotten, nor will his valor and courage.

In reading the loving reflections left by his wife and son, mother, friends and co-workers I can see that he was very well respected and is sorely missed. I hope that God is holding him in the sweetest part of his heart and the most gentle part of his soul.

To Tara, your love for Jason and how much you cherish him and your life together is truly inspiring as is your equal determination to honor and remember all fallen officers. As another survivor who was faced with the same sort of life altering event, I find hope in your tenacity and approach to healing. To Jason's mother, I share your anquish of having lost a beloved child in a line of duty death and know intimately the longing to see our sons again.

I am so sorry that Jason was robbed of his life so tragically, but through his heroism and the profound sense of duty with which he lived his life, he made an immeasurable difference. May his spirit continue to soar and may his memory continue to inspire.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Jason gave to his community and the citizens of Arizona, and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on August 28, 2004.

August 28, 2006

Jason,
As always, but especially today- you and your family are heavy in my thoughts,mind and heart. Continue to be with us Jason and keep us strong. Tara, I love ya "mama", and miss you & C more then I can say. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

REMEMBERING OFFICER WOLFE:

HIS JOURNEY'S JUST BEGUN

DON'T THINK OF HIM AS GONE AWAY
HIS JOURNEY'S JUST BEGUN,
LIFE HOLDS SO MANY FACETS--
THIS EARTH IS ONLY ONE.
JUST THINK OF HIM AS RESTING
FROM THE SORROWS AND THE TEARS,
IN A PLACE OF WARMTH AND COMFORT
WHERE THERE ARE NO DAYS AND YEARS.
THINK HOW HE MUST BE WISHING
THAT WE COULD KNOW TODAY
HOW NOTHING BUT OUR SADNESS
CAN REALLY PASS AWAY.
AND THINK OF HIM AS LIVING
IN THE HEARTS OF THOSE HE TOUCHED....
FOR NOTHING LOVED IS EVER LOST--
AND HE WAS LOVED SO MUCH.

GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU IN HIS CARE.

My throughts are with your family on the 2nd anniversary of your end of watch. I know they think of you every hour of every day and the tears still flow from their broken hearts and will for a very long time. They will never let you be forgotten nor will the Blue Family ever let that happen as you are a true hero and heroes never die. I want your family to know that they are not alone and there are many of us out here that walk in their shoes. There are no magic words I can say to help them with their grief except to take one day at a time. Keep watch over your loved ones, especially the kids. Also, keep watch over those still out on patrol. You are a true hero.

Jason,

It has been a difficult few days around here. I thought I was doing alright with the recent events surrounding the family but it really hit me hard today. I spent the majority of my time alone listening to our old songs and crying. It is so different now when our family loses another member to heaven. It seems to bring me right back to the day we lost you. Forever the worst day that I will ever experience. I wish that you were here to help everyone feel alittle bit better. I wish you were here to go with me to honor that special person you now have standing beside you. i guess there are a lot of things that we all wish for that we know we just are not going to get. What can I say? I can always wish.

Another big day is next week. It can be very difficult to experience so many things that we had talked about and now to do them without you..it just seems so strange. I have such wonderful, supportive, loving people around us but it stills takes me some time to move past those feelings of what it would be like to be experiencing this event with you. I know I cannot change what happened that August day but I certainly can think about the plans we had made and follow them as best that I can. The road map we designed for our family has definitely changed a bit but there are certain things that will forever be what Daddy wanted. Those birthday wishes are high on the list still.

I have been helping a friend out lately and it has been very meaningful. I know she feels as though no one is there for her and I want to help change that. I know how she feels...but if I can just be a friend that is always reaching out and offering a hand, I know it will make a difference. I don't want anyone to go through what I experienced. It only makes the grief so much worse. I know what I lost when you had to leave. We all lost so much. It is the same for her and her family. Losing your husband, your children's father, your best friend. Nothing will ever compare. Please help me maintain the path that has brought the two of us together and help us both find comfort with each other. There are to many of us that experience what we have experienced...to many of us that never that it could happen to us...It should never happen to the good ones!!

I love you sweetheart and I miss you so much! I heard something today that made me think of you right away..."although they are no longer here, they are always carried in our hearts". How true, how true. Forever Jason!

XXOO,
Your wife

Tara,
I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you today. As you are coming up on the second anniversary of Jason's death I pray that you have lots of support still around you....it seemed to me that the second year was almost more difficult than the first. It seemed like the second year I felt more lonely as everyone had gone on with things and quit talking about Calvin and asking about my well-being. So this is to let you know that you are in my prayers today and Jason hasn't been forgotten. I got your name from someone associated with Summit for Heroes 2006 as I participated also. If you would like to contact me, you can reach me through McPheeters. Take care!

Jason,

Thank you. Thank you for watching over us and keeping us safe. You have been instrumental in these last few months protecting us and our loved ones. I wish that you were not our angel but since we cannot change what was done, thank you for keeping your eyes on us. We are so proud of you and what you had to do. I hope that we are continually making you proud of us. We could not have gotten through the last two months without you. One more favor? Send some extra time to the person and place that really needs it right now. I wish things were different but some extra time will really make things better. So, if you can help in any way?

You will always be in our hearts and thoughts and everything! We love you honey. Thank you Thank you Thank you.

XXOO,

Jason,

I am sitting here listening to one of our favorite CD's. Of course, no one would believe that you even liked or willingly listened to this particular CD but it meant something special to us and our family. I went back to Police Week again this year. It was so weird to be there and experience everything so differently than last year. I went to events and gatherings that would have been upsetting in my first year but was acceptable for my second year. I did not remember just how fast the events were over last year...my first time there still has everything so hazy and sad. This year was alittle different. I could experience things through different eyes..different thoughts and feelings. Something special did happen to me while I was in DC this year. Some wonderful people I know organized a special tribute for you, myself, and our little one. It was very special and very heartfelt. I cannot thank those three special people enough. They gave us some closure that I never thought would happen. You know me, put-together, thankful, composed and then BAM! I started crying like a baby...it was all worth it!

Our precious son started swimming like a fish. A small fish but a fish none-the-less. He looks more and more like you everyday. Everyone is still split on who he looks like. Mostly, I hear that he is a 50-50 split between us and most days I agree. However, when he gets his Daddy's look and mischevious eyes and smile going, he is 100% his daddy. I try to keep him in-line but it just makes me laugh so much! We took a beautiful picture together at LeLe's wedding. You would be so proud of him. He tries so hard to be Mama's big boy...he still misses you so much.

Someone special to so many of us needs some extra prayers and help this week. Please look after her and do whatever you can to make this week pass quickly and without bad things happening.

I found a poem that I started writing when you lost your life...I have tried to fix it so it makes sense...I need to keep working on it! Maybe some day soon I will have the right words in the right place to express the right things. Keep your fingers crossed! I know, I know.

Always in our hearts, always in our thoughts, we love you. Now, tomorrow, and always! You will never be alone when you always hold near the promises of love shared.

See you in my dreams!

XXOO,

Your wife (WGFK and MMMFS)

Jason,
Another officer was taken from us, and being layed to rest as I write this, I am taken back to the day we had to say goodbye to you. I have to say that was the worse day of my life. I can not pretend that I knew how Tara felt, I just know my own feelings of losing you.
Jason, Tiffany leaves for duty in Iraq in August, I dont have to tell you how scared I am- you know she's my baby girl and she's just 19 yrs old, well- please watch over her for me, I know if anyone can keep her safe- It's you!
Your family is always in my thoughts and prayers.
Miss You!

As another officer is killed in Gilbert, it brings us back to remembrance of the time not so long ago we lost you. May God continue to bless and watch over your family and loved ones, especially your wife and son.
