Your heroism and service is honored today, the 94th 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 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.
I saw your name on the wall of the national law enforcement memorial today and read that you were the first known woman leo to be killed in line of duty.
Many years ago I was a correctional officer at SQ, and know that corrections and detention has always been a dangerous (albeit challenging) job.
Rest In Peace.

Matron Hart,
On today, the 92nd anniversary of your death, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of Hamilton County. It took another 8 months, but your murderer finally got the justice that he deserved.

You were the first and will not be the last. Still remembered and honored through this site. You opened more doors for females in law enforcement w/o ever knowing it.

No way should the first official line-of-duty death involving a female in law enforcement, go forgotten !!!
Today, I will honor You by sending Your story to many of my Sisters within the profession.
May You Rest-In-Peace.
