Jeff,
I was cleaning out my office today and found a card Sierra made me when she was little. I thought of you and smiled. You would be so proud of her. She is everything you wanted her to be, smart, beautiful and strong. She is doing awsome in school and she is a wonderful MOM! I wish you were here to see all she has accomplished. She reminds me so much of you (only the better female version) haha Thinking of you.....Hammer

Dear Jeff,
As you know you are a grandpa, Lyla Rae was born on your birthday December 28th 2016. She is a gorgeous baby girl and Sierra is a great mother! And just like Sierra baby Lyla "has a little hunk of ham". You have a wonderful legacy in Sierra and Lyla!! We love and miss you every day!!

Now and then I will search a name from memory. I went to school with Jeff, and remember the hair. I wouldn't have guessed Officer Sipe though! He was an old friend. I am saddened by the loss. Time really goes by too quickly. God bless you and your family.

Thinking of you today for some odd reason, remembering all the Pipestone County days. You were a special young man. Now I have converted to the Sioux Falls Police Department working for the past three plus years.

The football game is on. You and Hallbeck always loved to play football. I went down to John's yesterday and we had a good time shopping and going out to eat. I just want to say I love you Jeff, goodbye for now.
Love, Mom

Dear Jeff,
I miss you so much. I put flowers on the alter at church for your 43rd birthday. They were so pretty, and yes, they were a light purple -- your favorite color.
Christmas was wonderful -- lots of fun. Good food, great gifts and we played some games. Everyone had a great time at Jody's house. Even the weather was good.
I think about you all the time.
Love, Mom - (Darlene)

Dear Jeff,
We had our first snow fall here Tuesday night. I guess I'm ready for winter. Finished my yard work. I worked outside almost the whole month of October. Sierra helped me one night after school. She's a good worker. Never complains.
I am getting ready for Christmas. We will all be at Jody's house December 14th. That way Sierra can be with us. I will sure miss you. I always to.
Love you lots,
Mom

Dear Jeff,
We all celebrated Jon's 50th birthday. Sierra came with us and we went to a high class restaurant in Minneapolis. Beautiful day. And YES! Jon's favorite color is orange.
August 13th we all thought of you and what all you went through. Sierra and I cried together and laughed together. She got new carpeting in her room and a new paint job.
We all miss you so much.
Love you, Darlene (Mom)

Happy Fathers Day Jeff!
I am thinking of you today like I do every day. And today is such a special day. Fathers Day.
You were so good to Sierra. I was over to Sierra's the other day and we both missed you. She spent Saturday with Jody and Nancy. They had a very good day. She loves going there.
Your friend, Karen, had a baby boy. We had lunch. He was just the best. Such a nice baby. He is 3 months old already.
I remember when all of you boys were like that. Just so precious.
I am going to mow some grass today and I have lots of trimming to do.
Love you so much and will always miss you. -- Darlene (Mom)

Dear Jeff,
Miss you so much Jeff. Everyday. Sierra had her 14th birthday on the 14th. Yes! Her golden birthday. She had a wonderful day and she is so beautiful. She is my girl face.
Last night she had a field trip in St. Cloud. Had a very good time. Today Jody and Nancy leave for Europe. They've been there three times. They love Paris. I'm very busy in the yard.
Love you Jeff. Think of you a lot. --

My Dearest Jeff,
I miss you so much. Every day I think about you and what I wouldn't give to talk to you one more time.
Got a letter from the lady that got your kidney. She is so thankful and now I've heard from the heart recipient. So it brings a little comfort.
Jon and Jody are fine and very busy. We are going to Myrna's tomorrow. Jon got a turkey for Christmas so we'll just get together and visit.
I hear from Detective Karen. She's good to visit with. I talk to Bill Hallbeck a lot. He's moved to town now.
I'm busy here at the house. Always something to do.
I love you very much. Mom - Darlene
January 6, 2013
Dear Jeff,
I think about you all the time and especially when it was your birthday. Sierra thought about you too and so did Hallbeck.
We were all at Jody's house for Christmans. We all miss you. We had a great time.
My goal this year is to lose more weight and start throwing stuff away. I put flowers on the alter at church for you for your birthday. And yes, they were purple -- really beautiful.
Hey, I won $45 on last week's football game. You would have loved it -- Vikings and Green Bay.
Miss you Jeff.
Love Mom

Hi there Jeff! I went to Sierra's 11th birthday party. She is the most beautiful girl in town. You would be SO proud of her. She is so smart she is getting straight A's, she is on the student council, and she is in Gymnastics and soccer. She loves driving my pick up, up and down my dirt road like she did with your car. Her cake was just awesome. And, guess what...it had purple frosting and her name was in pink. I ate a piece for you after I had my piece. We will always love and miss you.
Love always,

My Dearest Jeff,
Today is Sunday April 11th. The day after you're brother Jody's birthday. Yesterday was such a beautiful day outside we know you were with us celebrating it. We had a nice little fire going and we roasted marshmallows and hot dogs. We stayed up until the early morning having such a lovely time. I know if you were here, you and Jody would of had a couple beers together. Although you weren't here with us last night sitting around the campfire, you were with us in our hearts. We love you and miss you Jeff. We are always thinking of you.

well dad, i made it to fifth grade already. within the third week of school there were seven bombs in princeton.
1. Princeton High School
2. Public Utilities
3. Post Office
the others were in people's mailboxes and on lawns. they caught the victims a day later. one was 18 and one was 17. i cried when they dismissed school when they told us that their were bombs. right away, i told my bestfriend, Jordan, (who's daddy died as well) that you would've driven all the way from work just to keep me safe, regardless. and without a second thought about it. that was always your goal is to keep me safe...i am a very lucky girl. and even if your not here when im getting boobs, of having my period, i know that somewhere in the back of your mind will say,"i will forever watch her grow and everyday wish that she wouldn't" 10-4-09 i love you(:<3333

All your friends still mention you. You were sure a good person and made everyone laugh. Your friends miss that.

3 years. God is working amazing things Jeff. Do I still think about that day...yes. Do I still cry...yes. Do I still miss u...yes. I have wondered when I wont think or cry about that day and I have come to the conclusion that it may be never and I am finally ok with that. I am finally giving myself permission to cry and think and its ok. There is no time limit. God has given me an avenue and I am listening. I'll stay...always.

Dearest Jeff,
Sunday was father's day, and you came to our minds as you always do. Sierra was out on Saturday and she loved it. We worked out in the yard with Jody, Sierra is such a good worker. She is such a beautiful little girl son, you would be so proud of her. She loves to drive my pickup, her little feet reach the pedals now and she drives well. She had gymnastics the next morning and I went and watched her, she was wonderful and I enjoyed watching her tumble and perform so gracefuly. Sierra is now a big sister because she has a new little brother.
Jeff, I miss you so much, I think of you all day, everyday.
I love you,
your mom

To the Family of Jeff,
I wanted you to know how sorry I am for your loss and tell you that I think of Jeff and Sierra often. I spent Xmas of 2004 with your family and I just found this website today with our photo. Thank you for that memory. Jeff, Sierra and I had a lot of fun together even though it was only for a short time. Jeff talked about all of you a lot. It typically came out joking, but he would have done anything for you. He had a sweetness about him that was always there even though he tried to hide it with jokes and humor. Sierra was his life and I can only imagine what it is like for her without her dad. She was a doll. We spent time coloring, playing with her Brat dolls and doing "girl" things while she anxiously waited for her dad to finish his shift. Jeff is missed by so many people and I just wanted you to know that I am one of them. My thoughts and prayers will be with you forever and ever.

Saturday Sierra and I celebrated her 10th birthday by going out to eat at Merlin's Restaurant, where you used to work, and then went swimmingc, we played volleyball in the pool, we had so much fun and were there for hours, and then finished the day off with a trip to McDonalds,because she will be 10 on Thursday May 14th, 2009. She is the most beautiful girl in the world! She's getting all A's on her report card, she does gymnastics, choir and soccer. Karen is coming down with Jessica and Brea and then Sierra and I are going to meet them at the pool to celebrate Sierra's birthday again. We had a beautiful day together as we talked about you and laughed and cried. She liked all her presents that she received.
I love you and Miss you!

Dearest Jeff,
Tomorrow would have been your 38th birthday. Christmas was just a couple of days ago and its been another lonely holiday without you here. I wish you were here to spend the holidays with us. That way we could sit around the table and eat christmas dinner while I bugged you about what you wanted for your birthday. The one thing I miss the most are your phone calls. If I could hear your voice just one more time you would make me the happiest mother alive. I know for a fact if Sierra heard your voice just one more time on the phone you would make her holiday the greatest one ever. We all miss you Jeff. the greatest christmas gift I cherish every year are the memories I have of you. I will always keep them close to my heart. I wish I could have you back. Sierra wishes she could have you back. We think of you all the time.Every morning I wake up your the first person that comes to mind. Every night I go to bed your the last person I think about before drifting off to sleep. I want to wish you a happy new year and a happy birthday. Im pretty sure god has a birthday party planned for you tomorrow night. Just dont get too carried away.
Love always

Jeff,
I still can't believe it. I don't think it's denial,
it's just a certain "unrealism" about you not being with us. We certainly do miss you.
What would we be talking about today? Sierra, mom, sports, music...... Sure wish you were at the concert this evening at Lake Harriet with the Honeywell Concert Band. After the rain, Nancy said there was an incredible rainbow and you could see the entire rainbow. I'd like to think of it as a sign of your light and love. We will always love and miss you.

I was looking at old photgraphs and I saw one of you wearing one of your crazy shirts. "Sometimes I pee when I laugh". I started to laugh so hard and it brought a smile to my face. I will never forget you and the impact that you had on my life. I speak to your mom often and try to comfort her.

All I could think about is you sending me messages to turn to that station on the radio and reminding me how cool you thought it would be if you cut the arms off of your jean jacket. I think of you always...

Jeff, I miss you Jeff like I do everyday. I miss you not driving in the yard and we always went for a walk. How I wish that we could do that again. Sierra got all A's on her report card and one B+. She is doing great in gymnastics and loves it. She certainly got her athletic ability from you. My girlfriend whom I've known from first grade on up went to heaven January 2nd. I know she gave you a hug from me. Love you so much. (Mom) Darlene Sipe

Hey you! havent written in a while. Thought I would drop in and say hello, I still think of you and your mom and sierra alot. I cant wait to get back im still looking forward to a day of shopping with sierra. I got a school picture of her in the mail from your mom and she is such a doll!!! I had her picture up at my desk at Impact but when I quit they took it down so now I have it taped in my locker next to my cousin's picture.You are missed every single day by everybody. Me and my mom say hi, and we think about you alot. She still thinks its cool that a cop was at my 16th b-day party...you know just in case things got out of hand *lol* I hope you have a good one and we miss you!!!

Well it was time for the annual physical. The event made me think of you and all the time we spent at the gym with the girls:) I remember yoga class that we had to try because your brother Jodi said it was a tough class to take. I remember how we were sweating our butts off and you leaned over and told me you thought the yoga teacher was Hot!!!!. It made me smile to think about you. It is really tough without you around. Thinking of you as always........

I have to say that last month was the first time in over a year that I wasn't consumed by thoughts of you on the 12th and 13th. I thought about you as I do all the time, but I didn't replay that day in my head over and over. I felt guilty at first, like I was forgetting you. I know that I will never forget you. That word GUILT has plagued me for a long time. The "what if.." the "if only i had..." the " if I would have just said..." haunted me. Last month was the first time I wasn't haunted and I have to say that I was glad. I was glad that I had only great thoughts about you and the kind of guy you were. Great thoughts of how you made me and others laugh. I have always had those great thoughts, but they were always accompanied by the guilt that I could've done more. I miss you and wish you were still here to make me laugh with your one of a kind humor. I miss your genuine way that you cared and were humble about giving. I know you will be missed by many as we approach another holiday season with out you. you are in my thoughts always....

I cant believe its past a year. Soon it will be 2 years and so on and so on. Just yesterday I was at my friend Naomi's and her mom put on an ACDC cd and right away I started thinking of you because I heard you liked ACDC. Then I thought of Sierra and your mom and your brothers.
Still planning on taking Sierra shopping one day! Well I better go Im in class and the bell is about to ring. We miss you alot!! From what I see and hear you are a complete Legend.
