Hello Phil Flagg, so many years later. I married an officer up here in Vermont. We don't have a Denny's, and we don't have a beach up here, but you are remembered so many years later dear Phil. Hope your family has found peace. You are PHENOMENAL. A wonderful man you are! Thinking of you so many years later. This is the impact you had on people. The impact that you had on me.

Opened a box tonight and shared it with my kids.a couple of photo's some news paper articles and the Shield of dreams book your mom wrote,even after all this time I still feel honored to have been your friend and I have shared your memory with my son and daughter see they never knew me as a police officer that was before they were born,years ago I traded my gun belt for a leather helmet and a big red truck and that's all they know. I had a very enjoyable night sharing my friend PJ with them.

After all the time that has passed, though I knew you for a short time, you left a mark on me. I think of you fondly. You brought a smile to my face and our conversations were fun. You are missed. God Bless.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the seventeenth 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. Rest In Peace.

"The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.
