Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 113th anniversary year 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 who was murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. Rest In Peace.

My great-great grandfather. My grandmother showed me the sidewalk where he was killed on the day before he was to retire from the force. Here's the story in the paper:

You are remembered as a true hero -- walking two suspects to jail. Back then you had to "go it alone" and enforce the law. Thank you for your many years of service and your courage.
