Your heroism and service is honored today, the 81rst 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 dimishes respect, not even 81 years.

Rest In Peace

Special Agent Patterson, today marks the 78th anniversary of your murder as well as the murder of your partner. I have a cousin with the ATF also stationed in Florida. He’s carrying on the honorable traditions of the ATF and our family could not be prouder.

You did your duty at the greatest cost to you, your family and the nation as a whole and an injustice was done by that technicality which did nothing more than obscure the real crime of murder. It’s disgusting but I’m sure the animal responsible faced true justice if not in this life, then in the next.

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