Well Dave, it seems like your presence continues to be felt through all of us. I just saw how Magana had a dream about you and came to this site to tell all of how you still make him laugh. Funny thing is that that's exactly what brought me here. Just the other night, I had a dream that we were back at the barracks and we were all planning a bbq at y'alls house in TT. Your smile is what I seemed to focus on in my dream. I miss you brother...I always think of you, Michelle and your girls. I can only hope that all is well with them and wish that I could be closer to help check in on them. You keep watching over us and we'll see you soon. Semper love for you bro....(freddy "flaco" lopez)

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 5th 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.

I pray for solace for all those that love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Your family is in my heart's embrace. Thanks to your friends for sharing their memories and devotion to you through their reflections.

Rest In Peace.
