Reflections for Town Marshal J. M. Bishop

I am the Great Great grandson of Ramsey Webster, the man who stabbed Marshall Bishop and was subsequently shot and killed. It’s my understanding that the Marshall was messing around with Ramsey’s wife and he was not happy about it and in a drunken rage, my Great Great Grand Father took revenge and sadly they both FAFO.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 106th 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.

This truly must have been one of the darkest days in law enforcement history. What a devastating blow this must have been to the families and agency.
