Sgt. Armstrong,
On today, the 50th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a LEO but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Army during WW II. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Sgt. Armstrong, on this 48th anniversary of your brutal murder, first off we can only hope the vile dirt who took your life faced true justice, if not in this world, then in the next.

Second, I thank you for your service to this nation. You proved yourself a true hero in so many ways, having your life taken from you while helping to protect one of America's greatest assets, it's railroads.

Thirdly, God Bless your family and the people they have become. I read a reflection indicating they are model citizens. This is a huge reflection on you and what you stood for.

Brother, Rest in Peace for all eternity and God Bless you.

Your heroism and service is honored today on the 44th 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 the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer. He was shot twice when ambushed on April 23rd when he was on a foot pursuit of two bank robbers.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. Rest In Peace.

My name is Judy Scott, I am a lifelong friend of Jackie's(Jack's only daughter). It is indescribable the emotion one feels to see such a tragic event in print. It appears cold and flat when in fact it was multidemensional and incomprehensible.
Mr. Armstrong(Jackie's Dad) would have been very proud of his family. All four members very successfully living their lives despite the tragedy they had to survive.
God be with you all!
Love
Judy

Rest in peace
