To the family and loved ones of Deputy Sheriff Shayne Danie York and his fellow officers with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department:

On this the ninth anniversary of Shayne's tragic death, I wanted to honor and remember him today. Shayne's professionalism and dedication will never be forgotten, and his memory will always be revered for his courage and valor. The circumstances of his death were horrific, and I am so glad that he and his family got the full measure of justice they deserved for this despicable crime.

In reading the loving reflections left by his friends and co-workers I can see that he was very well respected and is sorely missed.

I hope that God is holding him in the sweetest part of his heart and the most gentle part of his soul.

I am so sorry that Shayne was robbed of his life so tragically, but through his heroism and the profound sense of duty with which he lived his life, he made an immeasurable difference. May his spirit continue to soar and may his memory continue to inspire.

This reflection is sent with the utmost respect for the dedicated service Shayne gave to his community and the citizens of California, and for the supreme sacrifice he and his family made on August 16, 1997.

Still remembered...

I can still remember that night, as if it was today. I was off-duty with another LAPD cop, and we noticed that every 91 Freeway offramp was covered by LA/OC County cops. I mention you and your fiancee in my off-duty tactics classes, on a regular basis, and your memory lives on ! RIP, Bro

To the family of Deputy York, you are in my thoughts and my prayers. You died about the time Josh decided he was going to be a police officer. I remember how glad that I was that he chose to stay in Montana to follow his avocation. Nothing happens in small town. Six years later Josh died doing the job he loved.....

Its almost your eighth birthday in heaven. Your family and coworkers will remain in my prayers.

Shayne will never be forgotten. Although I never new him, his story has touched my heart. This incident also struck a cord with my husbands heart as he had a newspaper article of Shayne in his locker at work (Boise P.D.). Who knew at the time that just 1 month later, Marks name would join Shaynes. They will forever be heros. Mark had worked for and loved the people that he worked with in the LASD. God bless you and your loved ones Shayne as this is a pain that will never go away. You will forever be missed.

Thank you, Shane. You have given your life just because of the profession you chose. You were needlessly slain only for who you are.

God Bless you and your family

Although I never knew Shayne, I work now where he once did. I continue to walk where he did. His memory lives on and he has never been forgotten. It is required by every new Deputy to learn who Shayne was and how he lost his life. In this way, he will always be a part of us.

Rest in peace, Shayne.
