Reflections for Patrolman Frank Peterson

I am writing a narrative about Officer Peterson's murder. I would like to be able to talk to Traci about her role in the matter.

Frank, you are remembered. I wrote this article to recognize the 60 years that had passed since you'd been killed. https://www.inforum.com/news/the-vault/a-kind-hearted-nd-policeman-was-gunned-down-in-a-cold-alley-in-1963-inside-the-hunt-for-his-killers

I will forever be personally moved by your loss of life. Thank you for protecting the citizens of North Dakota.
It is a horrific case and my wish is that it would be an example of why life should always mean life.
To you’re family: although you’re killers were allowed out (& shamefully, one to adopt my brother and I), we did not stay in contact with him. He died alone.
I live my life in honor of officers and am grateful for his service. You will never be forgotten. I hope that knowledge brings you peace.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 49th 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.

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

Rest In Peace
