Your heroism and service is honored today, the 77th 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

Agent Cowley, just a short note to let you know your family is doing you proud. My youngest daughter is friends with your great grandchildren. They are great kids with a wonderful sense of humor. They are athletic, smart,good citizens and great friends. You did well. God Bless!...you are not forgotten. Your family speaks of you often.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to the family, friends and all the members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. We were made safer by his service and we all suffer their tragic loss. The family of Special Agent Samuel P. Cowley deserves our appreciation and gratitude for their sacrifice. No greater love has a man than the will to give his life for another. In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that Special Agent Samuel P. Cowley is a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Agent Cowley, 30 years after you gave your all protecting us, I met and worked with your nephew R Adams Cowley MD. We worked together 20 years. He often shared the story of your contributions and you were a source of great pride to him. We went together to Quantico to see your name listed with honor on the wall. Because of his closeness to your memory we worked to develop the medical capabilities for current and future FBI agents. He changed medicine as we knew it and became known as the Father of Shock Trauma worldwide. He has since joined you up there, and I hope you two have the time to make up for that which was lost here.

Much respect for those that give their all for what they beleve in...

Friend of the Cowley family.

Because of you and your dedication to Law Enforcement, one of the most ruthless criminals of our time was eliminated. Thank you for all you did and may you rest in Heaven for eternity. Godspeed my brother.
