Patrolman Lynch, on this 71st anniversary of your passing I wish to thank you for your service to the United States in WWI and for the continued service to the City of Boston. A tragic death to say the least and as it took 7 years to happen, it only intensifies the tragedy.

God Bless you and may your eternal rest be peaceful, Brother.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 70th anniversary year of your death. I am privileged to be among the first to leave a tribute to you. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service.

My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. Rest In Peace.
