To the family and friends of Sgt. Thomas Kelly and his fellow officers in the Derry Police Departmeent

On behalf of our entire family, we wish to pay honor Thomas' memory on the twenty-first anniversary of the day Thomas so tragically lost his life. His heroism, valor and bravery will be forever remembered.

Our family lost our beloved Larry Lasater when he was fatally shot in April of 2005 during a foot pursuit of two bank robbers, so we know the anquish you are still experiencing.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the service Officer Kelly gave to his community and the citizens of New Hampshire, and the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on September 17, 1989.
