Det. Schroeder,
On today, the 100th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you to you and your Partner for your service and sacrifice as Law Enforcement Officers.

Detective Schroeder, I have mentioned before my Father's 5 years as a NYCRR Police Officer, but I failed to mention that he did several years prior to that working the trains. His father was a brakeman and conductor on freight and passenger trains. My Uncle worked for the NYCRR and retired from CSX. My Grandfather's father got him the job on the railroad.

I may have never worked for the railroad, but thanks to my family, I feel a kinship with the rails and hence, I hold all railroad employees in high regard, but RR Police especially and of course, NYCRR in particular. You are a hero in my opinion and I will not forget your efforts and sacrifice.

God Bless you Brother.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 91rst 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.

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

Rest In Peace

Det. Schroeder, my Dad was a cop on the NYCRR for about 5 years in the late 50s and early 60s and often speaks with great fondness of his time there and how close everyone was. It's a safe bet that when you and your partner made the ultimate sacrifice, a terrific sadness decended over the whole department and you both were missed terribly. Thank you for helping to safeguard the railroads.

God Bless and Rest in Peace
