Chief
Thanks for your sacrifice and brave efforts to survive under almost impossible odds. Your willingness to take the Chief's position to fight unrest within the San Carlos Apache community says a lot about your bravery and resolve to help keep the community safe. The Apaches were fierce warriors and some of the best guerilla fighters in North America. Your service and sacrifice is greatly appreciated. It's good to see some of your ancestors still honor you as well.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the one hundred and twenty-eighth 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

My Great Grandfather's brother, my Grandpa's Uncle, my Dad's Great Uncle, my Great-Great Uncle. We'll never know exactly how this went down but he was killed in the line of duty and deserves everything and all the respect that comes with that.
