Frank,
Your daughter Nell told me the story of how you were killed many times. Tears coming all the time she was talking.
She was married to my father Lee Thomas Hopkins Taylor and I am his biological daughter. Your daughter raised me. She was a wonderful woman and so was your wife Josie Bowman. I was small then, with only a faint memory of Josie.

Grandfather, your son Paul, who was 18 years of age when your life was taken in the line of duty.
Dad shared much about you to his children.
He was so proud of you and so am I.

My dear grandfather,
Thank you for your service that has gone unrecognized for a long time. I would like to have met you. My father, you're son, was a good man and a good father.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 77th anniversary year 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.
