Your heroism and service is honored today, the 36th 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.

Your wife's courage and valor should also be acknowledged for she carried out her duty as a peace officer in what must have been the most agonizing moments of her life.

Rest In Peace
