Your heroism and service is honored today, the 67th 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 murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Rest In Peace

Thank you for your service to the City of Chicago. You have not been forgotten as your name now appears with honor and dignity at the new Chicago Police Memorial located on the Lake front. It is a very beautiful and peaceful park. You will never be forgotten and are a true hero.
