Bernard Orourke or Barney as he was known, was my Great Grandad (James) brother, he is remembered for his bravery back in 1913.
My great Nana said that his uniform was posted to his family after he had died. Although the people from my family who knew him are now gone he is thought of with great pride. God Bless you Bernard. [email protected]

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 97th 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.

Rest In Peace

On the 94th anniversary of Patrolman O'Rourke's death, we honored his service in our patrol briefing by reading his entry from ODMP. Each day, we honor one fallen officer on the anniversary of their death so as to keep them in our thoughts, and also to remind us of the dangers inherent in our job. Patrolman O'Rourke is not forgotten.

Rest in Peace, Brother. Your service and dedication will never be forgotten. Through your courage in doing your part to save those children, you proved that you were a warrior and guardian worthy of being called Home to serve under the greatest Commander of all. Know that those of us who have come so long after you moved on, strive to do the best that we can in protecting those who come after us. You are truly a hero and an inspiration of bravery.
