Reflections for Police Officer John J. DeRoo
Officer DeRoo,
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 USCG during World War II. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
Semper Paratus!

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

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 64th 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
