I am honored to be the great-grandson of Patrolman Albert L. Young. His son (Leonard Young) was the father of my mother (Myrna Young), both of Englewood, KS. I wish everyone would reaffirm their love and respect for all law enforcement officers, and never forget the profound debt of gratitude we owe to them for their courageous service and sacrifice--especially the ultimate sacrifice made by every single officer fallen in the line of duty. We love you, and will never forget you!

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 90th 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.
