Your heroism and service is honored today, the 74th 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.
Time never diminishes respect. You will always be remembered and revered.
Rest In Peace

Ptl. Murnane, I hope the two suspects were caught and punished. Though they would probably not be charged with your death, I hope the robbery charge stuck and they paid the price. It wouldn't bring you back, but it would bring closure. If they weren't caught, I hope they faced true justice, if not in this life, then the next.
God Bless and may you continue to Rest in Peace, Brother.

No officer should be without a reflection. I send this one to thank you for giving the ultimate sacrifice and for paving the way for the future for us to follow, on the thin blue line. Thank you.
