It doesn't seem possible that 10 years has flown by but yet here we are. It still doesn't seem real that you are gone. You were always larger than life & had a commanding presence. I'll always miss you but I know I will see you again someday. Love Always, Your Dragon

Another year has gone by. It still does not seem real that you are truly gone. I still have you phone number programmed into my phone. I have have a bunch of old emails I'll probably never delete. I'm sure you are driving everyone crazy in heaven!
Love always

Nolan,

You were one of the best friends I ever had. I remember so many wonderful things about you, things most people never knew.

Your kindness and altruism, how smart (wicked whip smart!) you were. Your quest for knowledge and your secret studies of any - and all things - you wanted to know about... which was everything!

That you liked musicals, but fell asleep during the middle of them, waking up at the finale! How many people you went out of your way to help, and they never knew who did it. Your dedication to police work and how you ALWAYS wanted what was RIGHT, not what was popular.

Your love for your friends and family was deeper than most might guess. I loved how you were always like a steel Twinkie - tough on the outside and a sweet mush on the inside. That life and years could make meetings few, but that you always thought of us.

Know, my friend, that you are missed terribly, and will be prayed for always and thought of often. And I will always remember the wise words you gave me for life!

For your family: I cannot express how very, very sad we all are for your loss. Thank you for sharing Nolan with us. May God bless you.

Love,

Lea Fauster

Nolan and my daughter, Laurel, were officers together serving and protecting in Conroe and, they were also good friends. This was how I knew of Nolan and how special a person he was. When my daughter called to let me know Nolan had passed away, I was very sad to hear it and I wanted you, his mother, his family, and his friends to know that my thoughts and sympathies go sincerely out to you at this time. He was a dear person.

Nolan, I'm heartbroken over your passing. You had such a big generous heart. I can't believe you are truly gone. I had every intention of calling you this past week & just got busy & didn't. Now I'll never be able to again. I'll always love you......your favorite Dragon!
