Your heroism and service is honored today, the 94th 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

Your name is now forever in a place of honor overlooking Lake Michigan on the Chicago Lake Front. Etched on the walls of valor with other CPD Officers at Gold Star Park. Thank you for your service to the citizens of Chicago. You will never be forgotten.

I never knew you, but I have often thought of you and spoke of you because you were the father of one of the best ladies ever - my mother, Mary Julia McGough Boyle. I hope and pray that you, my grandmother and your wife Elizabeth Foley McGough and your daughter Mary and son John have been reunited in a place far better than the one that all of you left behind. I think you would be proud of the family that has prospered in your absence. May God rest your soul and may you have everlasting peace.
