For some reason, thinking of you today. UCERT and lunches at Wendy’s. Our talks siting on the curb outside the Police Academy. Many laughs. Miss you buddy.

Still remember It like it was yesterday. I was off duty and called in and brought to the scene to bring back Tommy’s equipment, I will never forget what I saw that night and how many times I listened to his last radio transmissions. Rest in peace my friend.

Thomas, I don’t recall ever having met you, but I was working the night of your crash. As I typically did, I was scanning the local agencies on my scanner. I heard a mic key-up and then what sounded like a car crash. I’d assumed that it was someone goofing around on SPEN, as folks did back before the triangle boys could id you. It was only later when I was sent to help establish an LZ that I realized just what it was I had heard on the scanner. I still remember your car at Seville’s. Of all the jobs I’ve been on in my 27+ years, that’s one that will never leave me. I’m sorry that I never got to know you. God Bless and keep you Brother.

Took my son up to Allamuchy Boy Scout camp for campfire night this evening. Found myself thinking of Tom and his years as a counselor there. As I watched the staff engage with the kids and entertain them with skits and songs, I remembered Tom's spirit and kind heart....it was a place he belonged.

Tommy,
This November it will be 17 years since you were taken from us. I think of you often and miss the good times we had both as partners and friends on duty and off duty. It still hurts at times especially around Thanksgiving. You never did get that steak my wife cooked for you that night. Your Mom and Dad are with you now so Rest my Brother Rest in Peace. You are not forgotten.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 14th 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.

We offer our heartfelt sympathy to the family, friends and colleagues of Patrolman Haughton and we honor his distinguished service to the cause of justice and peace. Sadly, our nation has lost one of its finest citizens, a community has lost a friend and protector, and a family has lost an example of character and courage who they will love and respect forever.
To the family, friends, and colleagues of Patrolman Haughton, I would like you to know that a lot of people pray for you, and my hope is that their prayers will give you the strength necessary to move on. Just as you were always with him when he walked the beat or patrolled the streets, know that he will always be with you - wherever you may be. In the days to follow, may you be strengthened by the fact that Patrolman Haughton is a man distinguished by exceptional courage and will always be admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. You, your family, and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.
It was their duty to serve; it is ours to remember.
