Reflections for Deputy Sheriff Wendell Fay Dilworth

Deputy Sheriff Dilworth,
On today, the 90th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but for our Country as well when you served during World War I. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 79th 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

I am the surviving daughter of Wendell Fay Dilworth, am now 79 years old and living in Tucson, AZ. I just happened upon your website tonight and found my father. I just want you to know, that I thank you for keeping his memory alive after all these years. I was only six year old when he was killed by the two men. Both were executed in 1934. My mother died in 1983 and is buried in Waterloo.
Thanks again.
