This site brought George Garceau into the light. He had been forgotten over time, but now we will be able to honor him. Some of the info on the site has mixed up the location of the Jail. He lived in Manchester, NH. The area of Manchester lived in is known as Goffs Falls. The jail referenced in Goffstown, NH, was in the area of Grasmere. This was the site of the old House of Corrections. Officer Garceau was killed in the pre trial jail, known as The Valley Street Jail. The murderer, last name of Murphy, was murdered at the NH State Prison in Concord, NH in 1974.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 56th 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

We can only hope that your murderer and his friend either died in prison or at least served the entire sentence. To be willing to escalate a simple auto theft charge to murder (or manslaughter), is proof to any person of, even below average intelligence, is a clear indication of the person's dangerousness and lack of any real moral fiber.

You sir, are honored here for your sacrifice, your murderer and his friend are all but forgotten like bags of trash into the dump.

God Bless and may your eternal rest be ever Peaceful, Brother.
