Your heroism and service is honored today, the 80th 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 dimishes respect. Your memory will always be remembered and revered.

Rest In Peace

I am the great great grandson of Chief Woodbeck. I am currently scheduled to graduate the police academy Thursday May 12, 2011. I will be working for the same PD as Chief Woodbeck. It is an honor to be able to do so.

George Woodbeck was my grandfather, though I wasn't born until 1954. My mother was Lyda, one of the older daughters.
Mom used to tell stories of being "hit on" by Baby Face Nelson when she waitressed at Little Bohemia and Radio Joe's.
Grampa's name was inscribed on the Police Memorial here in Madison a few years ago. I want to again thank the officers of Hayward and Sawyer County who guided us through that day.
Deputy Matthew Wetterling, I believe you are my nephew. Your Grandmother was June and your Grampa was Everett. If you wish to contact me please leave a message on this site.
