Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Well, Leslie. It has been quite a while since we lost you. I have retired from law enforcement now and teaching full time. I often sit and think about you and how much of an influence you continue to have on my life. I remember the chats we had in my office and apply them daily to my life decisions. Rick and I talk about you each time we chat. You are missed by many.

Sergeant leslie wilmont was my Field Training Officer, myself and others were very close to Les, if ever you needed his help he was always there for you no matter what. Because of Les he made me a better Officer and God Bless him for that. He was really great as a practical joker, you just didn't know what to expect when Les was around. Myself personally he has been missed so much. I will never forget what he did for me making me a better Officer. I believe myself and other Officers who knew him a piece of Les will always be with us until the end of time. I miss you so much.

Good ol' Les, great friend and worked with you many times in Inola, Oolagah, and Rogers County. Loved your humor and drive for the profession. I will never forget you. I will never forget hearing the crash on the radio, driving red lights all the way from Inola and then realizing it was you my friend. Prayers were said then and now....think of you often buddy.

I know you still watch over us and are with us every day. I just wish we could talk like we use to about the kids and grandkids, about us and our future. I will all was love you. I miss you sooo much!

It's Christmas time Les, and I pause to remember the things in my life that I believe helped forge who I am today. You sir are one of those who impacted me deeply. Your memory continues through those who loved you, and those who respected you.

Well Les, it's coming up on seven years since you were taken away from us. Much has changed since you left, much will continue to change. One thing that won't is the wonderful impact you had on people's lives, including mine.

Today I continue pushing forward and using the examples you set as a rule and guide.

Miss you very much Les.

I have traveled to DC again this year to honor your memory aswell as all the heros that have gone before you and have followed you. The end of this month will be four years, it does not seem possible for you to have been gone that long. The kids are wonderful adults and take good care of their Mom. We are so proud of you and what your life stood for. I will always love you.

Eternally yours,

Hey babe,

It has been a year and I still can't believe you are not coming home. I miss you so much!
You would be so proud of the kids, they have all been so supportive to each other and me, but you knew that they would.
On the 29th we all went to the cemetary and had Paw-Paw's 1st birthday in heaven. Max had a red baloon and his was racing toward heaven first. He stood there with that look on his face like only a three year old could knowing that Paw-Paw was going to get his baloon first for your party. His Dad has been taking him fishing since Paw-Paw can't and he caught a 14" one this weekend he was so proud. Little Maycee looks just like her Momma did when she was 1, and she has her Paw-Paw's smile.
Love ya
B.D.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the first 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.

I know that you are loved and missed by many, and I hold your family in my heart today.

This past Saturday (5/16/09), I ran in the National Police Week 5K to benefit the Concerns of Police Survivors. By chance, I ran in memory of Sergeant Leslie Wilmott. May all of those that knew him and all whose lives were touched by him find comfort. God bless.

Last night (12-23-08), Sgt. Wilmott's father, George, passed away while Christmas shopping. George Wilmott was a long time Tulsa County Deputy Sheriff and while retired was still active in the FOP and numerious other Law Enforcement Organizations. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Family, this has been a diffcult year for them, but you guys are always in our thoughts. Both George and Les were outstanding Law Officers and I personally learned a great deal from them. We can never replace them, but can remember and learn from their example and I am proud to have known them.

To those who loved Sergeant Wilmott, my heart goes to you all. Know that you're not alone in this journey you walk. I lost my fiance in the line of duty January 2003 and my world was forever changed. It's been a long hard road, and even as time as gone forward, and I've found many reasons and ways to smile, I still have not forgotten the man that he was. Dennis was a beautiful person and he forever has a part of my heart, just as I'm sure Les will always be a part of yours.

It takes a special person to put their lives on the line everyday to make this world a little safer for us all. I know many of these men never would've thought of themselves as "heroes" but they were in so many ways. It's sad that it they had to lose their lives for some of us to see that. Having said that, thank you Sergeant Wilmott for helping to make this world a better place. You will not be forgotten here in Winnipeg. I know this isn't a very manly thing to do, but if you happen to run into Dennis up there, please give him a big hug for the kids and I. Dennis was a good man and we miss him more than words can say.

Wishing those who loved you brighter and better days,


Jocelyne
