Reflections for Police Officer John J. Flowers
Your killers may have escaped justice here on earth but they surely faced a higher justice in a different place at a later time. Rest in peace always knowing that no passage of time will ever erase your service and sacrifice.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 107th 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.
