Your heroism and service is honored today, the 88th 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

Officer Torres. To paraphrase the old hymn, you once were lost, but now you’re found, we were blind but now we see. You are no longer forgotten. Rest in peace.

Officer Torres, it’s been about 85 years since your murder. You died while protecting one of America’s railroads. It’s the railroads that sparked the greatness of this country and it has always taken special people to keep them safe. You have not been forgotten.
We can only hope that the low life that murdered you found justice, whether in this life or the next.
Thank you, God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.
