On today, the 146th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served in the Union Army during the Civil War especially as a POW.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 141rst 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.

Rest In Peace.

It's been a long time since your watch ended, but you've not been forgotten. If you only knew that someday you'd be revered.

Although it has been many, many years since your death, it would be nice if someone-somewhere had information regarding you.
