Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Got to telling “war stories” tonight with my girlfriend and Justin came up. Colonel, Mama Cain and Eli, know that he’s not forgotten. I still have his memorial bracelet and I can still muster up a laugh at some great memories from Lee’s Crossing and LaGrange PD, and a good many of those revolve around Justin. I hope he and Charo found each other in Heaven, and I’m glad I got to be a part of his life, however tragically short. Cain fam, hope y’all are well. My son will be at Benning next year for basic and AIT, and it would be amazing to come see y’all and share a minute or two. Justin, thanks for nothing but good memories. Rest easy brother.

Officer Justin Cain was under my father’s command as he was Justin’s Sergeant. Justin was such an incredible guy who was one of the nicest, kind hearted, respectful and just downright a really great young man who loved what he did for a living. He was a K9 Handler and his dog was brought into the hospital when Justin was there and stayed with him until he ultimately died. Years later with another handler his dog was killed by a man who he had tracked and tried to capture but was sadly intentionally drowned by a criminal. When Justin died my father was truly heartbroken because of how much he loved Justin. I also remember him very well and he was a one of a kind guy and the type of man that you wish could’ve be your big brother type of guy. My dad worked with the LaGrange Police Department for 30 years and had been a LEO for a total of or close to 38 years.

My dad still thinks of you and misses you and still says he feels honoured he worked with you and was your supervisor. I met you once as a kid and when my mom came in and pulled me out of lunch at school as a little kid at Mountville Elementary I cried because my parents raised me to know all in Law Enforcement are my family. My dad had to bury one close friend and fellow motorcycle cop years prior and never wanted to do it again. They still miss you Justin! My dad has not forgotten you! I haven’t either! I have referred to you as my Family because in my mind and heart you are. Please watch over my dad for me! He retired from LPD with 30 years and now is with the Troup County Sheriffs Office. Rest In Peace Justin. You are one of my dads and my heroes!

Justin was a great soldier and even better friend. I served with him in the 437th MP Co. We were in different platoons, but managed to stay close while we were there. I still have one of his flannel shirts he loaned me one night to this day and I will hand it down to my son one day too.

I miss you Justin...love you brother!

Well, year 17 is here. It amazes me every year that it's been 1, 4, 6, 10, or 17 years! It never seems that it's been more than a day, week, or month. But then I remember how old I am. I'll be 38 this year...I've seen about 13 years more of life than you were able to. That's what gets me the most. My big brother that hasn't been with us for 17 years now. But you're with me everyday by your bracelet that I never leave the house without and the thoughts of you throughout each day. Mom & Dad are okay, though they miss you every second of the day. I know you've got them on your watch now, but know I'm here to help. I told Mom tonight that we had The Smiths blaring all day and it made it a little easier...you're NEVER forgotten. Love, your little ( and only ,) sister, Eli

I am so sorry to hear of this today. Justin was always full of smiles and such a positive attitude. I don't think I can recall a time when he wasn't ready to take on anything. The world has lost a hero. Rest in peace brother.

I served with Justin at Ft Belvoir. I just found out today of his death 16 years ago. He was an awesome troop but an even better person. I thought of him often over the years and I had no idea of this tragedy.

RIP Brother

May 10th, 2012 - During this important week, memories flood our minds of all the surreal events that led to these writings. Amazingly - 12 years ago, we moved through the events in Washington DC, to honor you and others and to give the survivors the support and love we needed at that time.

Looking back on that week we are overcome with feelings of gratitude and love for the National Police Memorial and for our COPS chapters throughout the country. God love everyone that make those organizations what they are, life lines for the survivors to go on and to know we aren't alone in our struggles.

We love you Justin

Mom, Dad and Elizabeth

Dear Justin,
I wanted to let you know you will never be forgotten and for all that you did and most of all laying down your own life for others. I cannot think of a more Honorable Way to give your life. It still doesn't change the hurt of the ones that were left behind and your family but knowing the type of man you were and the heart you had seems to help. Your life was cut so short but you made a big difference in what time you were on this earth. Time moves on for others but for the family and friends left behind time stands still. Cindy I want to thank you so very much for your kind words on my son's page. We may have never met but we know what our mothers heart feels like without our son's. I'm sure you still question the why's and what if's as I do and they are always on our minds. We have a lot in common and as I always say the family gets the life sentence. Just as you do I do not understand the why's and why our son's? They had so much life so young and yet so much to give. I still trust God that He knows best no matter what I think. I still believe there is a reason for everything even though I don't understand what that could be. I remember the day Brian was killed that God gave me John 14:27 and every time I start to get down that chapter and verse always comes back to my memory and helps me to carry on. We keep Brian's memory alive every day and we still get him a Birthday cake every year because as we see it he is still alive in heaven . He is just waiting on us in our future. From the time he took his last breath on this earth his next breath was a new breath in Heaven. These pages do help to ease the pain in knowing that someone really does know how you feel and what you go through just to make it through each day. Again thank you and we will continue to keep you and your family in our prayers.

I want to thank your Mom for stopping at my son Michael's page and leaving a short note. I hear other bereaved parents say that as time goes on that the process gets a little easier. It has been over 7 years for me and it seems like it has gotten harder rather than easier. There is never a day that goes by that one of your loved ones doesn't think of you and they will keep your memory alive for as long as they walk this earth. Keep watching over all of your loved ones and protect them from harm.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 10th 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 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. I pray for the solace of those who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Like your mom, I share her anquish in losing a beloved child which surely has to be life's greatest sorrow. I hold her in my heart's embrace today.

Rest In Peace.

10 years...but it was yesterday. I write this with the same catch of my breath and tears clouding my sight as
always. There is no difference from "that day" to this
day. If anything, the pain is even more acute in thinking
of you Justin. The void is immense. We keep you alive,
with our talks of you, our memories of long ago antics,
wonderful humor and kind spirit. We keep you alive with the unchanging love for you in our hearts. You're with us every second of every day until we breathe our last breath. We miss you so much, precious son.

It will soon be a decade that has passed since you were called away from duty. I know that those that love you have not forgotten you nor will that ever be the case. They carry your loving memories in their hearts and will continue to do so for as long as they walk this earth. Continue to watch over all of your loved ones and close friends. I leave this quote for your Mom as I know she will understand:

"The sense of loss does not diminish with time. In
truth, the expression, 'time heals all wounds' is a
myth. For parents, the loss of a child is permanent,
and mental scar tissue really does not grow over the
grim memory. Rather, all tears are expended and a
dull ache remains." Author Unknown

You have not been forgotten. Also, my son was an Airborne MP.

Wow, I have been searching for my good friend, Justin, for a few years now. I looked on Myspace and facebook and so forth. I did not expect to see him here. Justin was my battle buddy in basic training. We also went to K9 school together at Lackland AFB. Also, his dad was my Col. for a few months at Ft. Benning. He was a super good guy and I owe a lot to him.

I was just sitting at work today and had thoughts of you and how you worked that security job at Mansour's. I was still in college at the time and working next door at G Mansour's. I remember how we used to talk about how much you enjoyed being a police officer and how much I was looking forward to it. I remember we were supposed to hang out that weekend. Even with the short time that we knew each other, I remember your great character. You will not be forgotten my friend.

I worked with Justin up until his death. I helped investigate the accident. Justin was a great officer and a good man. I sit here, on January 1, 2008, and for some reason, I thought of you. I now work with a friend of yours, Lane Johnson. He and I often talk about you. You meant a lot to both of us. Your accident was a shock to me. No one at the LaGrange P.D. could believe it. I just want you to know that even though it's almost eight years after your end of watch, your friends still think about you fondly. I still miss you, Justin.
