Picking Up the Pieces – a parent's worst nightmare

  • You Need to Write a Letter

    In fact, you probably need to write several letters. These letters are for the people you love most so they can have something tangible to hold and read and read again after you aren’t here anymore. These letters might be full of things you have already told them.  Or you may be able to write…

  • It All Matters

    It all adds up. Every hug. Every prayer. Every good wish. Every ‘love you’. Each one matters. Because each one builds on the last one and becomes the strong foundation of love and care that my family has stood on through this last very difficult year filled with tough days since Davey was killed in…

  • He Loved Being a Dad

    Davey loved life.  He loved a lot of things. But the three most important things in his life were Kristen and his two children.  And that was very evident in how he lived his life.  They came first.  They were at the top of the list.  Everyday. He had high expectations for his kids.  He…

  • Dream Snatcher

    It’s been over 6 years since my son, David Glasser, who was a Phoenix Police Officer was killed in the line of duty. And we have great memories of our lives with him.  We laughed, we played and we travelled.  We watched Davey play a lot of sports and we went to many games of…

  • The Rest of the Story –

    It’s the part we don’t hear splashed all over the national media. Recently, I was sitting with a group of mothers whose sons were all policemen who had been killed by felons in the line duty last year.  This was one of the sessions during Police Week in Washington, DC. Each mother told her story.…

  • He’s Missing

    It’s a constant issue. Somebody is missing. A tall somebody who was always adding a lot of fun and laughs to whatever was going on. A man of faith whose integrity and character clearly showed through the decisions he made in his life. He’s missing right this instant because we’re visiting our daughter and son-in-law…

  • Davey’s ‘Love You’ Tree

    We have planted a tree.  It’s right next to Davey’s spot in the Phoenix Memorial Park.  My son, David Glasser, was a Phoenix Police Officer who was killed in the line of duty last year. I’m calling it Davey’s ‘Love you’ Tree.  It’s giving us just a little bit of shade now but that shade…

  • His Legacy of Love

    Last year, one of the bright lights in my world was extinguished.  My son, David Glasser, a Phoenix Police Officer, was killed in the line of duty on May 19, 2016. He was a bright light in your world, too, even if you never met him. We may confuse you with End of Watch dates.…

  • It’s a Ride….

    A roller coaster ride. Up one day – down the next. Feeling good one hour – ready to go sit in a dark closet the next. A smile on my face one minute – and tears running down it the next. So many memorials – all bittersweet. It’s awesome to remember and honor Davey together…

  • Not ‘Flying By’

    It’s been almost a year. An extremely long year. Some days felt like weeks…. there were months that felt like a year…. There was excruciating pain on Father’s Day as I tried to smile at my fatherless grand darlings. I was reminded of a multitude of lost dreams on Davey’s birthday. It was so hard…
