As a student aspiring in a career in law enforcement in Minnesota, I admire your sacrifice. I hope that one day I am able to stand strong in the face of death as you did long ago. Thank you for your service, you are a role model for me in my life.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 134th 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.

Rest In Peace

Tomorrow will be the 130th anniversary of Policeman Kaepernick’s death. It’s so sad that a simple lack of communication brought about the death of this young man so long ago. Miscommunication has caused many tragedies and this one is immortalized here.

God Bless you Policeman Kaepernick and all your descendants. May you Rest in Peace, Brother.
