Reflections for Deputy U.S. Marshal Charles Thomas Warner
My great grandfather was the Sheriff of Washington County, Oklahoma at the time of this incident. He was one of several lawmen who accompanied Marshal Warner during the raid which ultimately cost him his life. Though my great grandfather died decades before I was born, I've been able to read accounts of what happened that day. Marshal Warner acted heroically. His sacrifice resulted in the capture of several violent felons and brought their reign of terror to an end.
You will never be forgotten Marshal. Rest in Peace Sir.

Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.
Thank you for your heroism.
God Bless

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 80th 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.

It has taken over 70 years, now we honor you and the fellow officers that were killed by my distant cousin Charles Floyd. May you find peace after all these years.
On behalf of my families I am sorry for what happened.
