I said a little prayer today for Head Attendant Wicks and her family. She may be gone but never forgotten. She will always be a New York HERO.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. I am privileged to pay tribute to you. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 107th 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. You hold a very special place in history.

Rest In Peace.

You were the first female officer killed in the line of duty, sadly you are not the last. Rest easy officer we have it from here.
