Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Officer O’Brien,
On today, the 130th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but for our Country as well when you served with the Union Army during the Civil War. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

One additional comment, it is truly wonderful to notice that Officer Shane O'Brien left a reflection back in 2011. Night Policeman O'Brien, you have left a legacy and no doubt you are proud.

It's now been 122 years since your murder at the hands of a pair of nobodies. They're deeds have been remembered, but they have been forgotten and discarded. You are honored here and rightfully so. I can only hope that your descendants have never forgotten your courage and sacrifice. Thank you for your service, not only in protecting one of America's greatest assets, it's railroads, but also for your service in preserving the Union.

God Bless you, hero and Brother, may your eternal rest always be peaceful.

Timothy O'Brien was born in County Tipperary Ireland. He joined the 27th Iowa Infantry at McGregor Iowa in 1862. He fought in the western campaigns, rose to the rank of Sergeant, and was wounded in Mississippi. After the war he became a railroad police officer in Mason City, Iowa.

He was my Great grandfather.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 116th 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
