Reflections for Police Officer Peter O. Rodriguez

I will never forget this day Pete, I called you multiple times on 9/11 and you did not answer your phone, I was so relieved when you finally called me back and I heard your voice. You had just worked a midnight tour and after that day I did not see or hear from you for a very long time as you like many others were working basically around the clock. A few years later in 2006 I became a New York City Police Officer just like you, you loved the job, you left your studies at Columbia University short of one class to join the Police Department. A few years later we found out you had Cancer, you lived two very short years after the diagnosis, multiple trips to the hospital and treatments. Pete, I will never forget you, you were an amazing brother-in-law and an awesome uncle to your nieces. I will make sure they forever remember you; we love you.

John 5:28, 29 - "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". I pray that everyone can find peace in knowing that we will see this officer as well as many others again in Paradise soon. Until then, please accept my condolences.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the fourth anniversary year 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
