Officer Grimm,
On today, the 100th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of the state of Indiana. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. There is no tougher job in Law Enforcement than that of a Corrections Officer.

John Grimm was my great-great-grandfather. This tribute is wonderful, and the reflections and kind words of the people who have posted here are incredibly appreciated. I can tell you that his wife and children never got over his death. They personally appeared at every parole hearing for each of the perpetrators.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 91rst 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.
