When I first came to this site, I was the only one who left a reflection so I picked a simple memory about Tom. Today with family and friends leaving reflections I thought I would add a private memory. Yes, Tom would play cards at my house but my most cherished memory was every Sat.he would come over and go to confession with my Mom and me. Sunday morning he would come over and go to Mass and Communion with my Mom and me. He was a very special person and will always bring a smile to my heart to have been his friend!

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 38th 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 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.

I pray for solace for all those that love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Your family is in my heart's embrace. Thanks to your family and friends for sharing their memories and devotion to you through their reflections,


.Rest In Peace.

As my career's end is coming closer, I decided to check and find those who had lost their lives during the year that I was hired. While it's been a long time since your passing, I'm sure those you left behind and those whom with you served with distinction have kept you alive in their memories. Thank you for your service and for looking out for us who continue in our chosen profession. Rest in peace Officer Wodarczyk.

I knew Tom when he was in the Army stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas. Tom and his friend Charlie used to come over to our house to play pinochle with my parents four or five nights a week. I don't know many young guys who would play cards with a middle aged couple. I would bake 5 dozen cookies every other day during that time.

Tom was a wonderful person and knowing him was a privilege.
