Time may have passed but you are not forgotten. I believe as long as someone remembers you or speaks your name, you are still with us.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 86th 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.
Rest In Peace.

James Home Kenney was my aunt Ruthella's father who responded to a loud noise/disturbance call in 1926 in Wellsville, Ohio. Little did he know it was a meeting of of "mob men," and when he knocked on the door he was shot numerous times.
