Reflections for Trooper Joseph Emanuel Dillard

Trooper Dillard,
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. Army. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Rest in peace always and know that your service and sacrifice will never, ever be forgotten by your law enforcement brethren.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 46th 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 would like to take this opportunity to express my sincerest sympathies to the family, friends, and to all law enforcement in the state of Tennessee. Tennessee State Patrol Officer Dillard was killed on the day I was born. I hope that Joseph Emanuel Dillard is forever remembered with respect and dignity. I hope I will able to fill the shoes that were left empty on September 15, 1964.

Peace and godspeed to all.
