View all 126 ReflectionsR.I.P. Officer Lasso on this first anniversary of your EOW. Thank you for your service, and sacrifice. I pray for your family. For I am familiar with their pain. For I am the son of a Fallen Officer whose dad's EOW was also March 1st. (Officer Arthur Williams Newark N.J Police 1978). Yes it's been 46 years for my family, but today I wanted to pray for a family, who's just beginning this grieving process. May God keep you.
