Reflections for Patrolman Michael Lynch
Reflecting on the murder of two NYP officers in the last few days. My grand uncle was Michael Lynch who was killed, July 1, 1911, in the line of duty. Michael was a patrolman. He was responding to a man who was shooting out windows in a building in Manhattan. According to news accounts, Michael was shot as he was entering the apartment where the gun man was.
RIP

Michael Lynch is my grand uncle. My grandmother Margaret Lynch Sullivan was his sister. I ask our children to remember him on July 1, the anniversary of his murder in the line of duty.

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 101rst anniversary year 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
