Your heroism and service is honored today, the 158th 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 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 remembered and revered.


Rest In Peace

Every day, I'm proud to be related to Casper Lauer and I feel that it isn't about the number or the year of an officer's ultimate sacrifice. It's about the good hearts and determined selflessness of all these brave men and women who've made the world a little better for the rest of us. Blessings on them all!
