Rest in Peace Special Officer John P. Cates. Thank You for your Service and Sacrifice protecting America's steel roadways.

I Pray for Peace for your Family and ancestors. I also Pray that while your murderers may have escaped justice on this earth that their carcass' are now being consumed by the hounds of hell. May their screams of pain and agony as they burn in the lake of fire echo around their earthly grave!

Amen.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 101rst anniversary year 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. Rest In Peace
