Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Officer Werner,

It’s V here as you would say. I was in Westminster a few days ago and went by the site that changed Westminster Police Dept forever. I cried like a baby. Thank you for always pushing me to be at my best. Thank you for your friendship. God speed.

Though your death was before my time here in Oconee - We still honor you William, we created Oconee County Honor the Fallen memorial t shirts that we sale each year and they sale fast. We do this each year in your name as well as the others (K9 Dasher and Schuck) who have lost their lives in the line of duty in our County. You are still remembered... Love to your family.

Bill was always an upbeat police officer. I got to know him during my last year of assignment at the 513 SPS/RAF Mildenhall. He was the go to guy for anything dealing with alarms, sensors and flightline security. It's no wonder the activists went to Lakeheath instead. We also used to entertain each other with great musical discoveries of that era. We used to "Surf with Alien" repeatedly in the porta-cabins.

Bill,

I had the honor and privilege today to be the keynote speaker at the Low Country Law Enforcement Memorial Service. I took this time to talk about you and the ultimate sacrifice you made almost 23 years ago. I will never let your memory die. I felt your presence there today and I know you watch over all of us as we patrol the streets.

I served with Bill at RAF Mildenhall in the late 80's. My first time talking to Bill was late one night on Gate 6. It was the rear gate for the base, and nothing much was near you except fields and hedgehogs. Bill would often swing through and check on me and the other young airman. He was always positive and upbeat. You are missed!

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 21rst anniversary year of your death. I am priviliged 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.

I pray for solace for all those that love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. I thank your family and friends for sharing their devotion to you through their reflections.
