For Game Officer L. Seeley Houk:

The duties of the Game Protector brings him or her to encounter the demands of the angry land-owner who, like many, wish that the laws be enforced as they are personally viewed, and not as they exist and are officially written. The game officer regularly arrives alone and must face others who routinely are in the possession of knives and firearms. We regret that GO Houk would meet his demise at the hands of an irate person whom he was sent to legally serve and lawfully protect. It is a stinging betrayal from one who the game officer is sworn to serve.

We pray for GO Houk's family, friends and all who care about him. We hope that they remember him most as a noble law officer who died doing what he loved, and in service to others.

I am proud to render GO L. Seeley Houk a final salute.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 103rd 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.

Rest In Peace.

I'll do my best, Officer Houk, too see that you are not forgotten. Your service to the agency was before the Training School was established. On October 1, 2007 your service and sacrifice will specifically be honored by the presentation of a Class flag to the Commission. We are grateful to you, and the others, who were " The First To Serve".

It just goes to show you that there was always sadistic and evil people in our society regardless of the time period. Thanks for your service Officer and know that you will always be remembered.
