Your heroism and service is honored today, the 69th 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

Though 1942 was a very long time ago and it seems that no one can recall how or why you died, your life has not been forgotten. Your memory lives on through the efforts of the keepers of this memorial.
God Bless and Rest in Peace.
