To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 88th 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

Dear Officer Monroe,
I have recently been researching Monroe Family history My husband's paternal grandmother was the grand-daughter of one of your father's brothers, In the process, I found you, a true hero in my children's family history. I will tell your story here to all of the family that I can this up-coming Memorial Day at a celebration at our church with a number of kin. You will be honored, along with the families of your father's brothers, who gave the land and labor for our small country church; of which my husband is the pastor! You will not be forgotten for your bravery and courage! The Monroe Family will be forever proud! Highest Regards, Love & Prayers!

I remember reading about you Officer Monroe during my 7 years as a Hutchinson Police Officer. I was always proud to wear the badge, but your bravery and incredible restraint and kindness, made me even prouder to wear that badge and to be a Hutchinson Police Officer. There is no memorial to you at HPD, I guess it happened too long ago; but that does not mean you are forgotten.
Your story is passed on to new recruits when they start the job. I had the honor of telling that story several times to new recruits. It is hard for me to comprehend just how brave you were in giving your life so that a child could live. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten nor will your compassion. Thank you for making Hutchinson a better place, and showing us what a true hero is made of.
