Reflections for Sergeant Michael J. Hunt

Dear Great Grandpop,

I was just randomly talking to my husband Chris about whether or not anyone in either of our families was a priest, and I was trying to remember whether my dad’s relative Michael Hunt who was tragically killed was a priest or a police officer. So I googled… what are the odds that I would look it up and find randomly that you died on exactly this date 76 years ago?! I will enroll you in Masses.
Thank you for your service, and that you for your Catholic Faith.

Your great granddaughter.

Sgt. Hunt,
On today, the 75th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice-not just for your Community but for our Country as well when you served with the U.S. Army during World War I. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 85th anniversary year of your death. I am priviliged 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.
