To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 100th anniversary year of your death. I am priviliged to be among the first to leave a tribute to you. 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. Rest In Peace.

Fred Holwedel appears as Frederick G. Holwedel in the 1910 U.S. Census, before he became a police officer. His occupation at that time was "Machinist, Brass Works". His wife was Marie Holwedel, and they would have been married seven years at the time of his death. They had one son in 1910, Stanley, just one year old. Unfortunately, the street the family was living on is badly blurred in the census report and cannot be read, but it was in Ward 18. The son does not appear in the 1920 census; perhaps he died young which is why he is not noted on the main page for Officer Holwedel.
Regardless, they are not forgotten.
