To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 152nd anniversary year of your death. I am priviliged to be among the first 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.

A true hero and no doubt a hell of a man. On this 147th anniversary of your murder, please allow me to thank one of the pioneers of American Law Enforcement for paving the way in some of the harshest of times.

God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.

Officer Martin,

143 years does not deminish the significance of you efforts, service and sacrifice. No fallen law enforcement hero should be without a reflection. I honor you. With brotherly love and respect, Jim Crotty (Former Richmond, VA Police Officer.)
