Hey you. Jacko and I are officially booked for Police Week. I so look forward to that time. It really gives me that time I need to just focus on all that has happened in the past (almost) 7 years. Can it seriously be 7 years already? Seems like last month sometimes.
I was visiting some of my Sibs friends in Detroit not too long ago, and I realized all of our brothers gave us a gift we didn't realize we would need so badly. That gift is the COPS organization that linked us all together. Honestly, this journey would have been near impossible without them.
Missing you seems to never be far from my thoughts. Life gets busy, the kids are crazy, and yet there are so many reminders of you that stop me in my tracks.
I love you so much.

Hi O,
You would have been proud of Katie and Jer and your friends who put together a surprise party for your birthday at the White Horse. We hugged, shared stories about you, visited, reminisced. Only one person was missing.
Love, you,
Dad

Two of your best buds sittin around havin a drink on your behalf, wishing you were with us. Too bad you couldnt meet alyssa, alex, or jacob you would have been a great godfather. We love you and always will. We still think of you and have many pictures and memories to reflect on, we'll never forget you. Boys forever we will see you again in the same light one day. We will never forget the experiences we have been through with you and we will live our lives from those lessons. Dave, Vida, and Katie we will always think of you and remember the little times as well as the big ones. Sometimes I dream of Owen and it brings some relief but hurts when I wake up and realize it was just a dream. Maybe one day, Dave, you and I could have a discussion about it, I am sure you would understand and catch my drift like you have been able too for the majority of our lives. You are one of 3 people that have always understood my train of thought and I have always admired and appreciated that gift you have. Love to the family forever, and forever is quite awhile.

Nathan and Jason
Only 3 people know you better.

Hi O. Something about signing up for the Sibs retreat makes me think about you all the time. Watching Hank & Walter lately has me imagining how much fin you guys would have had together. I can't imagine how much they would have adored you!

For the first time in 6 years, I am finally angry over your passing. Since this is a totally new feeling, I am not quite sure what to think about it. I guess it's about time though, huh?

Basically, I just miss you. I was thinking about the green couch at mom and dad's the other day. There was almost a 75% chance you would be laying on it when I came home at any point. I miss coming in and getting a hug. I miss the way your laugh only came from the belly. You were one of the few people who would not give a polite laugh if something was not funny....it was always easy to tell when something amused you. And you always made laughing at the most inappropriate times even worse.

I love you.

Hi Ho O,
I was just thinking of you and thought I'd say hi and let you know how much you are remembered and loved. We spent the afternoon yesterday with Katie, Jer and Hank and Walter at Higgins Lake. Would you have enjoyed your little nephews! And they, you.
Love you.

I’m sitting with Len by my side. I remember when you and Katie brought him home. He was so tiny. And, I remember Dad and I coming home finding you bleeding like crazy from giving him a bath (you were both bored and thought it would be fun to give a kitten a bath!) and his sleeping on your bed for at least a month after you died. Now he’s chasing voles and chipmunks and going on walks with Hank and Dad. I expect Walter will be joining them very soon.
We are remembering you by sharing your joy of life with Katie, Jeremy, Hank and Walter. You are always remembered and family and friends are still held dear.
Love you and miss you.

This morning, when I opened the front door to say my daily, "Hi, O.", a red band ran across the sky in the hole in the trees where I look up. It reminded me you were there, and I pretended that that band was blue.
Missing you every day,
Dad

Well, this week is 6 years! Seems crazy that you've been gone that long. I always go between thinking it seems like forever and thinking it seems like last week. Either way, you are missed just as much. This past weekend, I saw your gradeschool boys. Man, they all look like they did in the thrid grade....I can't beleieve the stories they still have no shame in telling. I love them all. Seeing everyone made me think how you should have been there. I am always telling myself that God must have a plan or else none of this makes sense.

Maybe it's good that Hank and Walter don't know what they're missing because that just makes it so much worse. Looking at Hank makes me think of you as he reminds me of you...all blonde hair and blue eyes and pale skin. Walter is more like you in personality...a gentle giant. That;s what I think of you...so gentle, so funny, and the only person who could probably make me the most mad in the whole world:)

We all miss you. I miss you.

Your memory lives on, Owen, with the Flint Sunrise Rotary Owen Fisher Memorial Scholarship. Tomorrow (June 22, 2011) a fine young lady who is from Flint Southwestern High School will receive a small ($1,000) proceed to support her education, and to help improve lives through her education at Kettering University. Mom always said you were a most caring and tender young man, and I know you are smiling down on us today in Flint. God bless you and your family.

Hi Sweetheart,
Today is an important family day. I know you're celebrating with all of us.
I watch all the nature around me and think of how much you would enjoy mother nature's show. Now that winter is receding, Len is getting outside. Pretty soon Hank will be wanting to follow Leonard in the woods - and maybe Walter, too. How you enjoy them!
Love you and miss you.

Hi O,
Well, we are all heading out to Police Week this year. Look out because Jacko is coming along for the ride. I am just looking forward to being at the wall, talking with you before the crowds show up in the morning, listening to the bagpipers, and having a wonderful few days thinking of you and having some fun on the side:) Although it is such a terrible reason why we are all going, if you had to be taken from us this is the most beautiful time. I love you so much!

Missing your company, wisdom, and humor. I wonder what it all would be like coming from a twenty-nine-year-old.
Love you

OMiss you more than ever. Hank looks at your picture and says, "That's mommy's brother Uncle Owen." Breaks my heart...Jer must have told him this. So much taken, much too soon.

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 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 who love and miss you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. I share your parent's anquish in losing a beloved child which surely has to be life's greatest sorrow.

O Fish, i miss you everyday. i can not believe it has been 5 years. I love you and miss you. Thank you for everything you were.

Late night drives, all alone in my car
I can't help but start
Singing lines from all our favorite songs
And melodies in the air
Singin' life just ain't fair
Sometimes I still just can't believe you're gone
