Thank you...
I think about this case all the time.
You know, people say there is always a silver lining to every
cloud. Even this tragic, horrific, senseless murder...has a silver
lining...although its probably never going to be that to the
parents and family and friends who miss these 2 more than words
could ever wrap their brains around...
The silver lining for me, is that I truly take every moment as the
precious gift it is: you never know what the next moment brings.
One moment you are celebrating 25 years of marriage, the next
you are planning a funeral.
I truly take each moment for what it is, a gift:: Always say I love you
always forgive and its never as bad as it seems. It can always be worse,
there is always someone worse off than you. My son was in a horrible
roll over accident. I pulled up on the wreck and we thought it was a car.
He was driving a truck. All the times, I had yelled at him for not calling
"for all I know you were lying in a ditch somewhere".....and thinking he
was dead in the truck, I ran across the highway to see my son lying in
a ditch with blood coming from his head and strangers all around him.
He lived, he was fine...bumps bruises and scratches. I got to give him
his medicine and take care of all the paperwork then take him home.
Johnny and Lisas parents didnt get to do that.
I know Im waxing a bit philosophical today...but after all the sluething,
obsession, waiting...Im just left with my thoughts and where they
take me....
and this is where Ive ended up. So, although tragic and senseless....
I take comfort that they didnt die completely in vain...they have
taught me some very serious life lessons...things I always new to be
true, but until now, were in my brain...not in my heart.
RIP Johnny and Lisa.
You may be gone from this earth, but you wont be forgotten as long
as Im alive and can teach these lessons to my children and grandchildren.
xoxo
You are missed...RIP Lady Cop
