Your heroism and service is honored today, the 91rst 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 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.

Ptl. Bray, Thank you for your service to the citizens of Boston and the Commonwealth as a whole. It pains me to think that you were only on the job 2 years and what enormous contributions you could have made had this tragic event not occurred. You have not been forgotten.

God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.
