My dad died from a sudden death too. It was a very hard thing for me to get over. I couldn't imagine how much pain his family went through. And reading through the reflection it seemed liked his family was super close. But I hope his kids and family had a quick recovery from his death. And I am thankful for his service for which he was a Angel and was brought to his community to protect the people.

Mr. Stanford, even thought it has been 4 years, I remember it like it was yesterday. I can still visualize the scene in the gym after Chief Fecht came out calling for people's help. I was down the hall sitting in Sgt. Owen's office when you left us to be with thw Lord.
God Bless you sir and your family. May I one day see you again and we can sit and have a chat like we did in the restaurant area of Little America in March of 07 with Lt. Munari.

Keep watching over your loved ones as we head into the new year, always smiling and always laughing like you used to at the police station.
I, for one am proud to have known you even though it was for a short time.

Happy Thanksgiving Sir. Thanks for ALL the snow here in Utah. I wish your family many heart filled thoughts this time of year.
Say hello to my little angel up there, Nathanial (2005-2009)

God Bless you sir, for the lord has what is one of the most honorable and respected men from Cheyenne in his presence.

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 those who love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.

Rest In Peace

Hard to believe it's been two years little brother. My heart is still broken and I miss you terribly.

I know you have welcomed many fellow officers since you've been there. All of you are special and we appreciate what you did for us.

Keep smiling down on us. We need all the help we can get in this world.
