I was only 5 when my brother in-law Charlie was taken from us. I remember him always being willing to sit down and color with me also telling me to stay in the lines. He would take me to the Park in Holtville and encourage me to go down the Big Tall slide he would be waiting at the bottom always ready to catch me. The park in El Centro was another one of our hang outs. Always a smile and a good time. My nephew Dennis looks so much like his dad. He has grown into a very fine man that I think his dad would be very proud of. You maybe gone but you will always be remembered and will live in our Hearts

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.
