Officer Down Memorial Page

I am very thankful that we live in the 21st century & we have the internet where I can find this infomation about my great-great grandfather. He was my father's grandmother's father. My family has deep roots in centeral Texas. As Af-Am. we need to know how much we have contributed to this nation. In 1871 a black st. policeman died trying to protect & serve his community. Working in education for 17 yrs I know kids do not know our history. They should :-)

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 138th 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
