Your heroism and service is honored today, the 43rd 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 diminishes respect and your memory will always be honored and revered. I also thank you for your service to your country as a WWII veteran. To have survived the Bataan Death March and three years as a prisoner of war is also a testament to your valor and bravery.

Rest In Peace.
