The last of his two sons has passed--he was 2 years old when his father was killed. Gerald “Jerry” Thomas Mathiasen, age 77, St. Cloud, MN died Wednesday, September 25, 2013 at Prairie Ridge, Sauk Rapids, MN after a long battle with dementia.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 74th 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 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 remembered and revered.


Rest In Peace

I am very proud to be the granddaughter of Al Mathiasen.
He passed away when my father was 2 years old, so I never had the pleasure to meet him. His sacrifice as a Police Officer will never be forgotten in our family.
God Bless you Grandpa!
