Jeri Lynn Labow Love~ July 5,1978 ~ July 29,2005A letter wriiten by Jeri's mom to the court~~" My daughter Jeri Lynn Labow Love was a wife and a loving mother of three boys, her house was a home. She was a good cook and loved to bake alot. When you walked in her house it was always filled with good smells. For being such a young wife and mother it gave you the feeling of a grandma's house and everyone was welcome. She took alot of pride in her family and her home. She was the type of person if someone needed it she'd give them the shirt off of her back or her last dollar. Jeri always stuck up for the underdog. She was a christian, donating time to the church. All of that is gone now in the blink of an eye. Was it wrong place at the wrong time, or god needed her more than us. I dont understand or see how!! Then again was it Eddie?or was it Heather? only god has the answers. Jeri and Julie(Jeri's younger sister) talked about twenty minutes before the accident. Julie had asked Jeri if she wanted her to come and get her and she said no becasue she had a designated driver; Heather Newcomb. What happened after that only god knows. I am no judge and I try not to judge people "part of my upbringing." So I have to ask for gods forgiveness as I write this. We are talking about someone who was drinking and driving,reckless,and on drugs. Someone who had no business behind the wheel of a car to begin with due to a revoked license at the time. They were all asking him to slow down and let them out and he laughed at them! Eddie killed my daughter, my beautiful baby. I know there have been alot of murders in St. Lawrence County in the last couple of years and I feel that that my daughter was murdered also. Not with a gun, not with a knife, but by a drunk driver in a car. I realize he got hurt also and I prayed for him to get better, but he did this to himself no one else did it to him. Now because of him not one, not two but three little boys no longer have their mom! So many, many people are never going to be the same again. I have to go to Pope Mills and pray to God everyday and night to try to make it through one more day. I pray for my surviving children. I pray for my boys Shawn and Shannon to have faith and believe. My daughter April works more hours than she she sleeps, and I worry about her. Then theres my other daughter Julie Anne, two years younget then Jeri, who hasnt been the same since. Julie somehow blames herself thinking if only she would have been there on that dreadful night, Jeri, would still be here with us!! So last August, after several attempts, she almost succeeded in killing herself. Then there is Jeri's husband and boys. They all could use "alot" of counceling. Eddie not only killed my daughter, but he took pieces of alot of peoples' lives that night, they will never be the same. When Eddie saw April and I at the Motor Vehicles Court he told us he was sorry, but never once has he called or written a letter to John(Jeri's husband), or the three boys to say he was sorry. As fas as Eddie's sentencing goes nothing is going to bring my baby back so I leave that up to God to judge. I just ask two things. I believe as part of Eddie's punishment should be:(1)He should have to write individual letters of apology to John and the boys, John Wayne, Jesse James, and Wyatt Willaim, every year on the date July 29th,the sau that he killed my daughter untill Wyatt has reached 21 years of age;(2)I feel as though Eddie should never be able to have a drivers license again because of lace of responsiblity that night and so many wrong choices he made."Edwin Dowling 2nd got sentenced on May 27,2007, my Aunt and the rest of my family think that his sentencing was bullshit and he didnt get shit out of it. Edwin was charged with Criminally negligent homicide, DWI and speeding and he only got 90 days of consecutive weekends in jail and 5 years probation.
