Reflections for Captain Robert C. Cowdin

Capt. Cowdin,
On today, the 60th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just as a Law Enforcement Officer but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Navy during World War II and was wounded in action as well. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

To fully honor our heroes of the present, we must
recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 51rst 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

I was a Seregant with the Olathe Police Department and was there at your side. I witnessed your bravery as hundreds of drunken college students rioted and attempted to destroy the jail and court house. You stood your ground and held back the mob, even while in the process of suffering a fatel heart attack. It should be noted that at the time of his death this brave Officer held the rank of Captain of Police.

You will alawys be in my memories. This Police Officer was a true hero!!!
