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

Officer Wulbers was first on the scene to intervene and rescue my Great Grandfather Captain AA Fox of the mounted police during a brawl at the Pacific Mall Wharf. Fox had arrested two natives gambling on the Wharf when a crowd of natives began beating him. Wulbers was no doubt one of Fox's mounted officers and arrived on the scene to break up the scuffle. AA Fox was badly beaten but was able to free himself from the crowd just as Wulbers and Officer George Kauai arrived to hold them back until additional officers arrived. Previously Fox had successfully stopped a runaway carriage by jumping from his running horse onto the runaway horse pulling the carriage to a stop. This happened in May of 1900 also on King Street. In the carriage were Attorney General Henry Cooper's wife and daughter. Fox did not know who they were at the time. Both officers risked their lives in the line of duty back in the day when chases were done on horseback! Thank you John Wulbers.

We cannot fully honor our heroes of the present without paying tribute to our heroes of the past, Your heroism and service is honored today, the 114h 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 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.
