16 years ago I lost the single most impotabt source of strength, mentor, and best friend. I lost the ability to spend time with but I know you are close and check in. I feel you over my shoulder on calls and you keep my out of dangers way. You made your presence known a few years ago when I was ready to quit but because I could feel your strength I carried on. I miss you each and every day.

Its been almost 16 years until you left this family. All of us have been waiting for the day that we can see you again.
Being named after you has been the best thing ever. I hope I can see you one day.

Thinking of you and all of your loved ones today. You are a true hero and have not been forgotten. Continue to keep watch over all of your loved ones and those still out on patrol.

Yesterday another officer lost his life. I don't know why God takes the best of the best. No parent should feel the pain of losing their child, or a son/daughter losing their father so early.
It still hurts so bad. I know the pain the family of officer Schneider is going through. I know you were there to great him and welcome him to his new home. God bless you all. Hope you had a good Christmas with Jesus.

Tuesday marks 12 years we have been without here on earth, knowing you are with us from afar. We miss you so much life has not been the same. I can still see you smile and here you laugh. We will always remember not only a police officer, but also you are a great son, brother, uncle, husband, grandson and friend. Love Mom

We miss you so much. Sunday Kaylie will graduate from high school. I know you will be there proud as you can be with tears in your eyes. I will never forget what you taught her the short time you two spent together, it was the best of you. I know as she moves forward to the next step of her life knowing you will be there helping her from afar. I am amazed by all the things she remembers of you and the respect she and Mitch have for you.
Mitch to is growing into a wonderful young man and although he had less time with you he remembers so much.
On May 15th National Police Memorial day we celebrated your life with the family, watching all the little ones playing and laughing in the sunshine I know you were there.
June 10th once again we will award two scholarships at the skills graduation honoring you, giving a helping hand as you always did your memory goes on in so many ways.
Love and miss you son Love Mom

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 11th 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.

I pray for the solace of all those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever.

Rest In Peace

Jason, I knew you when I worked in Austin. I remember your eagerness to learn the job. You asked for my advice even though I was a new officer too. Your memory has helped me be a safer officer. You are missed.

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

Jason, if it's one thing I miss the most it is your laugh. It never mattered what mood I was in, when I spoke with you; you brought me to good spirits. I remember when we anxiously anticipated our graduation from college with eachother during our final year at Riverland. I also remember Craig and I skipping a class to have lunch with you on a beautiful fall day in september 1999. It was worth it, we never laughed so hard that day. On that day I remember asking if I could ride with you on the evening you ended your watch. That changed my life forever to know that I could have been with you. You made the ultimate sacrifice and I formally dedicated my college degree in your honor on the night I graduated. I wished to celebrate that moment with you but made the celebration a tribute instead. You were a great friend Jason. I wish we could have shared our accomplishments with eachother. Let the blue light shine.

Jason's goal was to be an officer. He loved what he did. He loved Grand Meadow. He was always eager to learn more. He would do anything to help out anyone, that is just the kind of guy he was. He worked extra hours(and donated the hours) to help out a sick friend. That is the kind of guy he was. Though he is gone, he will never be forgotten. No matter what my life brings, Jason will be forever in my heart! Love always, your wife, Sara Meyer
