Tom,
Wow! It's been a long time ago that I had the pleasure of meeting you. You a trooper and I a Riverhead officer.
Worked a few calls together as we always backed up in the Riverhead area.
It was a terrible tragedy the day you were taken from us.
I'll never forget the loss to our police community.
I also remember the roll you played In the apprehension of the shooter of a Suffolk Police Officer.
Always reminded of you as I cross the bridge in Riverhead.
I hope your son is doing well in his career.
R.I.P Tom.

I said a little prayer today for Trooper Consorte and his family. He may be gone but never forgotten. He will always be a New York HERO.

Hey Tom its been a long time since that day and I think of you often. You and I had that special friendship bond while we worked as brother troopers and that's something that I will never forget. I stop by to see you often as I do my Mom, she is not too far from you. I was not aware that Eric was following in your foot steps, I know that will make you so proud. God Bless you my friend and rest in peace. you will always be in my heart and thoughts.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 22nd 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.
I am sure you are proud that you son is continuing your legacy of protecting and serving.
Rest In Peace

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

Merry Christmas!!
i really wish i could have gotten a chance to meet you. If you were anything like your son i would have loved you! You should be so proud of him, he's doing so well and getting everything in his life in order. He's going to school and doing good. He's got a job now, a good job, getting everything together little by little. I know it's hard for him to talk about anything but i know in my heart that he does it for you to make you and his mom proud. I know your in heaven smiling down on him, just watch over him please.
Rest In Peace
Always Remembered, Never Forgotten

Brother Consorte,
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Respectfully,
You’re Brothers in Blue

After all these years I am still in disbelief over your passing. It seems like yesterday when we in the Academy as part of the 157th Session.You were taken from us much too soon. Rest easy, my brother...
