Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Eric I am sitting here thinking about what you were doing 6 years ago tonight. You were out with Roberto celebrating his birthday. I know how bad you felt going out on one of our Friday fun nights. Six years ago tomorrow you were taken from us. Some days it feels like you have been gone for so much longer and other days it feels like we just lost you. Either way you left us far too earlier. I wasn't ready for you to go. Six years later I still am having a hard time letting you go and allowing myself to live again. Oh Eric I have so much guilt. Why didn't I ask you to stay home? Why couldn't our love keep you safe? Why? Why? Why? One day I hope to see you again. Until then Eric, you will never be forgotten. I love you babe and I always will.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the fifth anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was murdered on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

I hold your family in thought and prayer and pray for their solace.
Rest In Peace.

Five years have passed and I know for those that love you dearly it has felt like a lifetime since they last heard you laugh or saw your bright smile and felt your warm touch. Continue to keep watch over all of your loved ones. You have not been forgotten.

Eric,

It's hard to believe it's been almost 5 years since you gave the ultimate sacrifice. I still can remember the get togethers at my sisters house as we laughed till our stomachs hurt. Eric you are a hero and times I've wondered who was looking out for me on the streets and deep down I feel your there. Thank you

Hey brother, I can't believe how quickly the years have went by and, yet, your memory is still running strong. Amazing, it's been ten years and I can still see your face so clearly. I can still hear your voice, pushing me to be my best. I did brother, and not a day goes by when Im out on the streets, that I don't think of you. I keep a memory of you in my patrol car for good luck, so I know you are with me, giving me the courage to be as strong as you. You are such an inspiration to so many people and I hope you know what a difference you make, even still. May God Bless your beautiful wife and children. Colleen, you and the babies' are loved by so many of us. Be strong and know we will always be here for you.

May God be with you especially today and give you a special peace and comfort, the strength to keep going. Phoenix was so fortunate to have such a brave hero to serve and protect, and Eric will never be forgotten in our hearts. Please tell all of the officers that a citizen just wants to say thanks so much for all that they do even when it seems to be a thankless job and the public even gets mad at them sometimes for enforcing the laws. I just wanted you to know I will say a prayer for you and your family today.

My thoughts are with all of your loved ones as they face this day. I know that those that love you think of you all the time. The first thought they have when they awake each morning is of you and the last thought at night before they drift off to sleep is of you. You will never be forgotten.

Those who we love and lose
Are no longer where they were before.
They are now wherever we are.

I was liistening to the radio the other day. The radio personality was reflecting on the life of a famous person. He used a quote from a well known american poet, "You will forget the things a person said but you will never forget how that person made you feel". I will never forget how you made me and many others feel, Whitey. You were always uplifting, funny and inspiring. I hope in some small way I can do the same.
Our prayers and thoughts are always with Colleen and the kids.
I miss you brother.

It is hard to believe that it has been four years since you left us. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you or the impact that you had on the lives of others. Though you never got to meet her, your neice will be told all about her uncle Eric. You are greatly missed.

Brother Eric it seems like only yesterday when we lost you and brother Wolfe to be reassigned to our Lords police department in heaven,yet it is almost 4 years. Now that you are enjoying your new partners in His kingdom know that you are not forgotten by your brothers and sisters here in Phoenix and all around this great nation. Know too that your family will never be forgotten but will be cared for by those still here. When you talk to Jesus give Him a hug for all of us still here. Rest in peace brother, enjoy the new service to God's children.
