Reflections for Police Officer Jonathan James "AJ" Schroeder

Jon i miss you so much. It seems like yesterday we were at your house making home made movies. I cant believe it has been 4 years. I miss laughing with you. Seeing your smile always did and always will make me smile. I love you so much and miss you. You will always be in my heart.

4 years and it seems like it just happened, my gut is in knots just thinking about the day I met you, when they were doing your background check. You had the same smile through the academy and into your career. You worked hard. When I didn't answer the phone, you and your partner show up at my door at 11pm looking for some help on a search warrant !! What balls,, and we went out and did it, and did it well.

That is what the job is all about, and you did your job and then some.

You will never be forgotten, Rest in Peace brother, I am a better person by knowing you.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the third 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.

Rest In Peace.

I cannot believe that the kids are already 3 years old and getting ready to start pre-school. I still remember Tom telling me that you called him to find out why he was at the hospital the day out daughter was born. You and your family is always in my thoughts.

A.J.,
I just wanted you to know I think about you often, and after a five year wait, I finally made it! Can you believe it, a cop at the same district where I use to book your prisoners as an I.G. Carlos and I knew you must of had a hand in our hiring process from above! We went into the academy 10-23-06, not to long after your tragic day. Your video chokes me up every time I see it. Please continue watching all of us sisters and brothers in blue, and we will try to continue your remarkable service on Earth. It's been a long time since I've left that first reflection, but you will never be forgotten. Your always and forever a hero in my eyes! Rest now and keep smiling.
