I have known Randy from 1992 to 1995. As an intern, I had a desk right across from him. He inspired me to learn how to ride a motorcycle.

Now, every time I drive on Highway 37 and see the placard, I remember Randy.

Thank you for your heroism.

I drove down hwy. 37 recently for the first time in a long time, when I noticed that the highway was named for Officer Randy Bolt. The name struck me as very familiar. It occurred to me that I had the opportunity almost 30 years ago to work with Office Bolt on several occasions when he was the department's designated juvenile officer, and I a CHild Protective Social Services Worker Social Worker for the County of Marin. I remember Randy as a physically big, soft-spoken man, who inspired calmness and safety in frightened children and youth, and who inspired confidence in me when he provided police support to my colleagues and to me, when needed in the course of pursing our work. I thank Officer Bolt for his service. We may never never know how many young lives he touched with his kindness and courage, but I know they are out there today as adults.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 17th 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.

I pray for solace for all those that love and remember you for I know both the pain and pride are forever. Your family is in my heart's embrace. Thanks to your friends for sharing their memories and devotion to you through their reflections.

Rest In Peace.

Rest in Peace, Agent Bolt. Your sacrifice is not forgotten.

Officer 11169

"The Badge"
He starts his shift each day
To respond to calls unknown.
He drives a marked patrol car.
A police officer he is known.
He's paid by the citizens' taxes
To make it safe on the streets.
But he usually has a second job
'Cause a waitress has his salary beat.
Now he doesn't know a holiday
'Cause he works all year round.
And when Thanksgiving and Christmas finally arrive
At his home he cannot be found.
He's cursed and assaulted often,
The one whos blood runs blue.
He seldom ever gets a thanks,
To some he's just a fool.
His friends are always other cops
'Cause people just don't understand
That underneath his badge and gun,
He's just another man.
He knows there might not be a tomorrow
In this world of drugs and crime.
And he gets so mad at the court system
'Cause the crooks don't get any time.
And each day when he leaves for work,
He prays to God above.
Please bring me home after my shift
So I can see the ones I love.
But tonight he stops a speeding car,
He's alone down this ole' highway.
It's just a little traffic infraction.
He does it everyday.
Well, he walks up to the driver's window,
And his badge is shining bright.
He asked the guy for a driver's license,
When a shot rang through the night.
Yes, the bullet hit its mark,
Striking the officer in the chest.
But the Department's budget didn't buy
Each officer a bullet-proof vest.
So he lay on the ground bleeding.
His blood wasn't blue - His blood was red.
And briefly he thought of his loved ones
'Cause in a moment the officer was dead.
In the news they told the story
Of how this officer had died.
And some who listened cared less,
But those who loved him cried.
Well, they buried him in uniform
With his badge pinned on his chest.
He even had his revolver,
He died doing his best.

Randy was my best friend in High School. His first born son was named after me. While our lives took different paths, he contacted me a few years back to renew our friendship. He had a remarkable sense of humor and I loved him dearly. I miss him and, if there is a heaven, he is up there raising some eyebrows. Goodbye dear friend. Steve
