My dad, Jack Curran, talked about you with me tonight. He said you and his father were not just fellow officers but good friends. I hope you are hanging together.

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.
Thank you for your heroism.
GOD Bless

To fully honor our heroes of the present, we must
recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 77th 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

Grandfather:
Your son, Charles, was my dad. He was a young man when you died. He talked about you with pride from time to time.
You would have been proud of my dad. He was the best dad and a compassionate person.....just like you were.
