Sergeant Patrick Ryan died from injuries received in an automobile accident while picking up a suspect being extradited from Florida.

Sergeant Ryan and the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor had gone to pick up a vote-fraud suspect held in Miami, Florida.

The prosecutor's car crashed into the rear end of a car that had stopped suddenly in front of them. Their car flipped over. Sergeant Ryan, who had been detailed to the Prosecutor's office, was seriously hurt and died a few hours later in a hospital in Brookville, Florida.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 68th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never dimishes respect, not even 68 years.

Rest In Peace
