Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.
Thank you for your heroism.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 8th 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.

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

Blessings to your family on this Father's Day. I can't imagine the journey you've had since your father died on this day, but hope you've found peace. His tour was so short, but I hope you've found the powerful impact he made in your lives and the lives of everyone he encountered on duty. Honoring Constable Hutchinson in allegiance with the officers lost in service.

"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.

Well my dear brother, we have reached the two year mark. Do you know how hard it is for me to close my eyes and see your face, and wake up and you are no where around. I'm trying so hard, but I miss u so much. Maybe if the way we found out about your death was so hard, and we had that chance to say good-bye it would be easier. But deep down I know that not true. God I miss my brother so much, I look at my grandson everyday who carries your name, I know u are with him, and I know u are proud. But how can I ever fill this hole in my heart, when my brother is not there. Steve I'm trying so hard to let you go, but I just can't. I ask and pray for God to stay with me each and everyday. I believe that you are still around us, please help me. I just want my brother back. Your last words that you said before you died will always be etched in my mind.But were Hutchinson and we were taught to be strong. I think God for your friends at Leitchfield Police Dept, and the Fire Department because they have really help me alot. Especially your friend Kevin H. We all miss u so much. Now I will be alright, but my hurt is always there. You have 5 sisters and 6 brothers that will always keep you alive. I love u always and forever. Enjoy the beautiful place I have seen you in the one where the river runs free and clear, it
is beautiful. Always in my heart, and my prayers and dreams. You said you would never leave me, now I understand your still here. Sleep tight my brother, and you have always been my hero since day one. Love your baby sis Paula "Hutchinson" Martin
