Samuel Boswell Wingo is respectfully honored 166 years after his death for his service. Missouri was a tough territory in 1843 and it took a brave man to wear the badge of Sheriff in an attempt to keep peace in his community. His name will not be forgotten. Samuel would be proud to know that other family members also served as law enforcement officers and many others proudly served their country during times of war.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 166th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was murdered on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Rest In Peace.
