Even these small reflections do not go unnoticed. From his surviving grandchildren, great grandchildren, and now multiple great-great grandchildren-THANK YOU. And thank you to all who continue to serve. You continue on in his honor and all others who have come before you.

On the 68th anniversary of Patrolman Farmer's death, we honored his service in our patrol briefing by reading his entry from ODMP. Each day, we honor one fallen officer on the anniversary of their death so as to keep them in our thoughts, and also to remind us of the dangers inherent in our job. Patrolman Farmer is not forgotten.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the sixty-eighth 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.

To the family, friends, and coworkers of Patrolman Farmer, my condolences. Police Memorial Week is quickly approaching and my Recruit class would like to honor all of RPD's fallen Officers. Does anyone know where Patrolman Farmer's grave site is located? We would like to leave something there to honor him and the ultimate sacrifice he made during Police Week.

Chauffeur on this, the 64th anniversary of your murder, you continuedto be honored. The passage of time in NO way diminishes the service and sacrifice you made to the citizens of Richnond, Virginia and our country. I'll continue to honor you, your name and your memory. Years ago, the late Walter Payton, the great running back for the Chicago bears said "You're not gone until you're forgotten." I'll never forget you Chaffeur, and thanks to the Officer Down Memorial Page, our heroes and warriors of today and yesteryear will never be forgotten. Thank you for daring to walk the path of the warrior Patrolman Farmer. With brotherly love and utmost respect, sincerely and respectfully, Jim Crotty (Former Richmond, VA Police Officer.)
