Reflections for Patrolman Clyde William Harrison
Your heroism and service is honored today, the 60th 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 who was murdered in the 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

My dad was a radio operator for the Kansas City police department his name was pete J. Nikitouplos he was a close friend of Clyde and talked of him quite often. I was at his funeral I was 6 years old at the time I will never forget it I remember my dad helping Mr. Harrison wife and the pain that poor woman had. My father is gone now I hope they are togeather talking of old times.

Obviously I never had a chance to meet Patrolman Harrison. he was killed 17 years before I was born. My father lived next door to him as a child and remembered him as "a kind and gentle man" who "was my friend". Evidently he talked to my dad quite often and let him sit in his "prowler car". My father recalls that they did in fact wind up catching Patrolman Harrison's killer. I'm going to contact the Kansas City PD and see if they have any further information. It's strange, finding out about this after all these years. I've been a cop for 14 years and I'm 35 years old, and this is the first time my dad and I have ever really talked about it. I appreciate the ODMP's efforts for all LEOs and their families. Keep up the good work!
