Family, Friends, and Loved Ones of Officer Lasater: My sincere condolences to you all. I am so sorry for your loss. It is always sad to hear about another fallen officer. Although I did not know Officer Lasater, it is evident that he was a very brave man, who was respected and loved very much.

To Larry Lasater's Wife,
My heart breaks for you. I know there are no words that can be said, to take away your pain. When I lost the love of my life, my precious Josh, a piece of me died with him. I love him and miss him more and more as each day passes. I understand your pain, and I hurt for you. You are not alone. I pray that the Lord would shower you with comfort in this time of extreme pain and sorrow. My heart aches for you. Know that I am lifting you up in my prayers. Take care.
Sincerely,
Kelly

"In The Line of Duty"

What is the meaning of "In The Line Of Duty"
It means that an officer made the Ultimate sacrifice.
It means that someone took an officer's life.
A hero has fallen.

Officers who gave their all
To protect and serve
Have been killed by someone whom they swore
To protect and serve.

It means that their badge will no longer be on their chest
And they will join
"The Best Of The Best"

It means that family and friends are left behind
To deal with the lost of a loved one.
Only having the memories of that loved one
Close to their hearts.
Something no one can ever take away.

It means that family members will stand at the officers grave
And wonder why ...
Why would someone take an officer's life
And leave them there to die?
If we only knew.

Today an officer will place their badge on their chest
To fulfill the dreams of heroes killed
"In The Line Of Duty"

Goodbye Officer Lasater as you will deeply missed, i just doesn't seem right that we lost another in the line of duty. My deepest sypathies go out to your family, friends, and co-workers and know that you will never be forgotten for the ultimate sarafice that you made. You served and protected the people of pittsburg with honor and pride thanks for the job that you did day in and day out. As you have taken your final call for service and you join the other fallen heros REST IN PEACE and GODBLESS you Ofc. L.Lasater

I want to express my heartfelt condolences to the Lasater family. I am originally from Antioch, California and I am a former Law Enforcement officer from South Dakota. I knew several members of the Lasater family as I was a child. I hope that everyone realizes the bravery that Larry exhibited while doing his job and also realize that officers everday have the chance to face such dangers.

Please support your law enforcemnt officers everywhere.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family and fellow officers of Officer Lasater.

While no one who wears a badge wants to be put into such a situation, he put himslef into the line of fire to protect those whom he might not have even known despite the danger. While I did not have the privilege to have known him personally, I am certain that he has found a place in heaven.

Rest in peace my friend; those of us who remain will cover your post on the thin blue line.
