I am currently in Troop A Auxiliary Trooper School. One of our instructors has spoken to us numerous times about the outstanding love and respect he had for Sgt. Sottile.

We think of you often and thank god for the outstanding men and women like you, who have given their lives for our State.

Sgt Sottile. I was dining at Outback the other night and met your daughter, who happened to be my server. We talked about you as as she spoke I could see how proud she was and how much she truly loved you. I could see by my brief encounter you raised a fine young woman. You would be very proud. Rest in peace my brother.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the third 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.

I pray for solace for all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.

Rest In Peace

January 12th will as always be apart of my life as long as God allows me to live, as it will be for many others who loved Nick. However, it is not a day of happiness but a day of hurt and rememberance. January 12th helps me keep your memory alive, its been three years and it still hurts like it was yesterday!! Thinking of you as I often do, I miss my friend!

Nick,
Today is 3 years since you were taken from your Family & Friends. It seems like yesterday that you were with us telling us a joke and bringing smiles. Not a day goes by that we don't think about you or someone mentions you. We know God had plans for you up in Heaven and we know you have already fulfilled them. We miss you...

Happy Birthday Nick! Your memory lives on with us! Every time I look at or drive the Trooper, I think of you. Now that the boys are hunting at the ranch, they always refer to "Uncle Nick's" tree stand. We have such great memories! Please continue to watch over us! We miss you!

Love,

Forgive me for missing the anniversary of your E.O.W., but I felt as though I could not continue to read about so many tragedies. I now realize the visit each day to leave a word of encouragement and hope to the loved ones of others, helps me to remember that I am not alone with my pain and heartbreak. So may I say to your friends and loved ones that my thoughts and prayers are with them now and always. Continue to keep watch over them and those still out on patrol and may they know you will never be forgotten.
