My husband died in January 2022. When I am visiting the cemetery, I like to look at the other headstones. Certain stones, names, dates, catch my attention. I took a photo of Officer Omslaer’s headstone & learned about his tragic death from your website. So many stories and so much love and loss can be found in the cemetery. I appreciate being able to learn more about some of my husband’s “neighbors”.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 86th anniversary year of your death. I am privileged to be among the first to leave a tribute to you. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. Rest In Peace.
