Reflections for Patrolman Thomas J. Costello
Patrolman Costello,
On today, the 75th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Army during World War II. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 62nd 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

I have had the privilege to work with Officer Costello’s son, Tom, who is also a member of the Chicago Police Department – a Sergeant. I have never met Officer Costello but if what they say about the apple not falling far from the tree is true, I know that he was an exceptional Police Officer. We can’t say it enough… Thanks for your dedication and sacrifice.
