The Cheplick family never forgot you.
The memory of your friendship with your partner and our Great Grandfather Joe Cheplick is still talked about at family gatherings. We believe the stress of your loss contributed to the illness that took him home just 3 1/2 years later. Thank you for your service! Tell him we said hi!
John J Bugieda, Sr.
Grandson of Mr. Reiss' partner Joe Cheplick.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 53rd 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
