My friend Melisha lost her husband in a car accident yesterday morning. Shane Figueroa was a police officer for Phoenix PD and was hit by a drunk driver on his way to a call. They have a three month old baby girl. Please keep her and her family in your hearts and prayers. We love you Melisha.

Emilee,
You might not go to his funeral? I totally understand that, but I think that we wives of Police Officers should stand together! Jeremy and I will be going & hope I see you there! But I totally understand if you can't make it, believe me, everytime I think about what happened I cry and cry, because how can we NOT put our husbands in his place in our mind, and think about us going through what Melisha is going through!

Hey Jeremy was asking what area Todd works out of? He thinks he has meet a DPS Officer Thatcher in the AJ area, could that be Todd?
I know that Melisha is so overwelmed right now, but if she ever needs support she is welcome to call me. Do you have my number?
