Cheif Cotton,

You were grandfather that I never met. I have only heard stories about you. My father witnessed the you being shot. He has told me the story several times. He always told me what a great man you were and how good you were to him. I never knew you but wanted to thank you for everything you did for my dad and the service you gave to Wewika.

I'm the Assistant Chief of Police in Wewoka Oklahoma, we are comprising a wall of honor at the Wewoka Police Department. I would love to talk with any family members of Assistant Chief Cope and Chief of Police Cotton and share any information I have about the fallen officers.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 59th 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
