Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

I knew Larry in high school and remembered that all he talked about was becoming a police officer.
We started a small business of washing cars on Central Ave. in Valley Stream while we were still in high school. I can't believe this many years have passed since he died. I think of him often and hope that he is never forgotten, god's speed Larry.

It was my honor to research newspapers, books and magazines and finally find your ID Card Photo and make sure your photo was put on this site. I wanted to put a face to your heroism in the Line of Duty. I did the research because you are a brother officer and no matter how many years past, you will always be remembered. Rest Easy Hero.

Larry, We dated throughout high school and then went our separate ways. You always wanted to serve as a policeman. Reading this, so many years later, I can help but get teary eyed... I am not surprised that you responded as a hero. You always believed in doing what was right.
You were a good man.

Sympathies to the Stefane family on this the 43rd anniversary of his passing. My older brother Ernest was the patrolman sitting next to you at 830am that morning exactly 43 yrs ago today. It could have been him I always think. He was also just early in his career with the NYPD perhaps in his 4th year. He went on to marry in 1977 and have three children. His youngest John is now a Lieutenant with the NYFD. God bless.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 42nd 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.

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

I pray for the solace of all those that love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Your family is in my heart's embrace. Thanks to your family and friends for sharing their memories and devotion to you through their reflections.

Rest In Peace.

Patrolman Stefane I meant to say the police magazine my dad received was the Spring 3 one -hundred. Rest in peace.

Rest in peace Patrolman Stefane. I remember by reading the Spring 300. I believe that was a magazine which told of a day in the lives of police officers. My dad worked out of the 1o2 precinct in Richmond Hill. His name was Patrolman Owen Davis. He worked for 38 years, before retiring to Florida. Your courage that day to protect your partner was outstanding. heroes such as yourself are to be commended. Detective Robert Laurenson is buried at St. Boniface too.
