Uncle Frank,
I am LorI- your sister Frances De Leon's daughter. I only remember very little of you. I was young when you passed. My mother told me you had five children and I have often wondered about them. I'm sorry you didn't get to watch them all grow. You are a hero.RIP

On the 39th anniversary of Officer DeLeon's death, we honored his service in our patrol briefing by reading his entry from ODMP. Each day, we honor one fallen officer on the anniversary of their death so as to keep them in our thoughts, and also to remind us of the dangers inherent in our job. Officer DeLeon is not forgotten.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 38th 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 hope to one day meet some of your family at a COPS function.

Hi Dad, Just thinking about you I know what DeLeon stands for. It means "Of The Lion" This man came into my work with the same last name and he told me that. What do you know? That is probably why I roar. I do not sugar coat much. I love you. I have your work ethics. Your soul lives on in me Dad. I am living proof of your greatness. Keep watching over us, I know you're with me. Love, Sharon
