Even though I never knew you I feel as though I did from the stories my Mother told me and, from the journals you wrote. Reading those journals I felt as though you were sitting beside me telling me the stories of your life. What a loving father you were, and grandfather to PattyAnn .
You have been in my life through stories, pictures and memories. For now I will wait, till the day comes when I can say Hi Grandpa!
You are always in my thoughts and forever in my heart.

It has been sixty years today since you were taken from our family. We know through stories shared by those closest to you that you were a wonderful family man. You would have cherished your twenty-one grandchildren, but only were able to hold one in your arms. We have missed you terribly.
Love,

Patrolman Pearsall, today marks the 52nd anniversary since your tragic and mysterious death. How and why you were taken from those who knew and loved you may never be known. We can only hope this case is solved for the sake of those who have come after you, both at work and those loved ones who truly need closure. Thank you for your service to the people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and specifically the City of Lowell. You have not been forgotten.

God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.

Your heroism and service is honored today as we approach the 52nd 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 who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer, 48 years after you were killed.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered.

Rest In Peace.

On today, the 49th anniversary of your murder, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your community, but also for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

50 years have passed since you were taken and it's my hope that God has finally granted you the justice you were denied here on Earth. Your service in the military and your service in law enforcement does not go unnoticed or unappreciated. Your writing from your Army years is still out there for people to read. Rest in Peace Brother.

Your service is not far from our minds. Thank you for your service. RIP
