Your heroism and service is honored today, the 20th 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.

I pray for solace for all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.

Rest In Peace

Bill and I worked together for several years, when I was
with the State of Alabama DOC. I knew Bill well, as both
a friend and co-worker. He passes on a legacy of greatness
to all who walk in his shoes. We only wish the best for his
family, friends, and loved ones; as Bill will never, ever
be forgotten.

I never was lucky enough to know officer Donaldson. I learned about him when I took a job at the Prison that is now named after him. I spoke with many of the officers that were present that horrilbe day. Why did this happen? It is impossible to understand - he was simply escorting a nurse who was giving out medication.
I pray for his family, and his daughter. I know he is looking over the thousands of men and women who walk into a prison each day to protect us. God bless you and your family.
