Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Deputy Keeper Stetser,
On today, the 110th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of the state of New Jersey. There is no tougher job in Law Enforcement than that of a Corrections Officer.

Reading just this glimpse into your life, knowing that you made the ultimate sacrifice for the oath that you took, I am, as others have stated, honored to not only have been a Correctional Officer and Sergeant, but to have walked and served in those same hallways that you walked and served in. I can only imagine what your co-workers & family went through, but I pray for your souls and theirs. I always viewed our work as important and a chance to make a difference and looking back, knowing that people like you went before me, I believe that enough of us did and still do and have taken that oath with sincerity. Thank you for making that ultimate sacrifice that likely saved the lives of others. May you rest in peace always.

I am privileged to be among the first to leave a reflection for you. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 99th anniversary year of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service to my home state and the birthplace of my son. 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.

Time never diminishes respect and your memory will always be honored and revered

It has been 99 years since you died a hero, and you have been forgotten for far too long, but that is over now. Welcome Home Brother.
