My family wishes to thank you, Ptl. Jim Leahy Jr. for your kind words and all the other officers that have left a reflection in our fathers' honor. He is and always will be our hero. God Bless all police officers and their families. I know my father would be proud to be BOSTON STRONG.

Today makes 46 years since your life was needlessly taken and as is obvious by the posts here, you have never been forgotten. It's both heart breaking and reassuring to read the posts from your daughter and relatives. It is proof that, so long as your memory is kept alive, you're never truly far from the hearts and minds of those who love you. You are and for ever will be a hero to those who loved you and those who never met you.

RIP, Brother.

Ptl. Jim Leahy, Jr.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 43rd 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 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.

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks dressed in Holiday style in the air there's a feeling of Christmas. Children laughing, people passing meeting smile after smile and on every street corner you'll hear... Silver Bells, Silver Bells, it's Christmas time in the city. Ring a ling, hear them ring, soon it will be Christmas Day.
