His daughter Sandy grew up to be an amazing woman. She is an honor to his memory and I am lucky to have her as a friend.

Thinking about you and your family today, Sandy.

To the family and friends of Sgt. Timothy Littlefield and his fellow officers:

On behalf of our entire family, we wish to pay honor to Timothy's memory on the twenty-third anniversary of the day he so tragically lost his life. His heroism, valor and bravery will be forever remembered.

Our family lost our beloved Larry Lasater when he was fatally shot in April of 2005 during a foot pursuit of two bank robbers, so we know the anquish you are still experiencing.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the service Sgt. Littlefield gave to his community and the citizens of California, and the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on September 14, 1986.

Over the past 13 years I have seen your family grow from your 5 children to 10 including their spouses and 13 grandchildren. I have the honor of marrying your daughter, and my son is your name-sake. Because of your sacrifice for your community, you have influenced many in your family, including myself. If not for you, I would not have my family, both personal and professional.

I think you would be proud of your children. They each have grown to be fantasic people and good parents. I know they think of you each day. Your son, Joseph, is in the hiring process for the Riverside County Sheriff. Your son, Scott, works in the mainteneance department for the San Bernardino Police Department.

I have been told my son, Timothy, has your personality and adventurous spirit. He has big shoes to fill having your name.

Thank you again for being an influence in my life and watching over your entire family. God speed, sir, we have the watch from here.

Deputy Sheriff E. Lowell
Riverside County Sheriff's Dept.

Rest in peace, Sir! You will never be forgotten.

Police Officer

"The Badge"

He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.

He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.

Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.

He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.

His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.

He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.

And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.

But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.

Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.

Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.

So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.

In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.

Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.
