Officer Merrill was struck by a tractor trailer and killed during a traffic stop on I-10 near Benson.
Your heroism and service is honored today, the 33rd 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.
I pray for the solace of all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. The tributes left in your memory were so loving and enabled me to learn what a special man you were.
Rest In Peace
Phyllis Loya
Mom of fallen California Officer Larry Lasater, Pittsburg PD, eow 4/24/05
