Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

The citizens' business was your daily business, Officer Cook, a hero of morals,mettle and all the wonderful fabrics of honor, integrity and dignity all flowing in your veins. A welcome relief to Dade County, your unassuming and professional character, commitment to excellence and convictions both truthful, fair and trusted will never be forgotten. A salute to your unselfish heart and humble soul now blessed and rewarded in the skies above for their wisdom and virtues. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 2nd 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.

I pray for solace for all that love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Your family is in my heart's embrace. Thanks to your friends for sharing their memories and devotion to you through their reflections.

Rest In Peace.

I come to the ODMP often to remember my late fiancé Dennis. Every time I come here it breaks my heart to know that yet another officer has fallen and that yet another family has to live their lives without the officer they loved. My heart goes out to everyone who knew and loved Sergeant Aguilar. Know that you are not alone in the "journey" that you walk. Should you ever need anything please don't hesitate to contact me. (The Davis Co. Sheriff's Office in Iowa will always know how to reach me. I can also be found on Face Book.) You will be in my thoughts.

From reading the reflections left for Franco, he sounds like he was a great man with a beautiful spirit. Those of you who knew him in life were so blessed to have been able to share in it. I hope that you will all continue to find a way to celebrate and remember Franco's life and the MAN that he was. Remember that Franco's life was about so much more than the way he died. Franco will continue to live on as long as we continue to remember him.

Sergeant Aguilar, thank you for helping to make this world a little safer for us all. YOU will not be forgotten. Please continue to watch over all of us as only you can. If you happen to bump into my late fiancé Dennis up there give him a big hug for me and the kids. It's been seven years and a half years but he's still very much missed and forever loved.

Wishing you brighter and better days,


Jocelyne :)
