Reflections for Officer Richard Scholz
Officer Scholz,
On today, the 75th 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 with the U.S. Army Air Forces as a Fighter Pilot in Europe fighting the Germans during World War II where you earned the Distinguished Service Cross(second highest award just below the Medal of Honor) and Distinguished Flying Cross Medals for bravery. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the sixty-first 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.
How proud you must be that so many in your family have continued the legacy of protecting and serving.
Rest In Peace

Officer Scholz was my father's step-brother. He loved being an SFPD Cop. My father was a Batt. Chief of 44 years with the SFFD. I am in my 35 year of law enforcement. My son is in his 13 year, my daughter in her 5th year, my sister in her 12th year, my niece in her 4th year, and son in law in his 11th year. Richard, you started it and you are not forgotten. Rest well your family is working the streets.
