2 YEARS AGO BINK AND I WERE WATCHING THE MEMORIAL DAY PARADE AND IT HIT ME......NOTHING WAS EVER DONE TO HONOR OUR HOMETOWN HERO , EDWARD SHANNON. HE WAS KILLED IN WW1 AND JUST FELT SOMETHING SHOULD FINALLY BE DONE. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS NAMING THE BRIDGE AFTER HIM BUT THATS 50 YEARS OLD AND CRUMBLING UNDERNEATH. WHILE ON A DAYTRIP WE TRAVELED ON AN HONORARY HIGHWAY AND THE LIGHT BULB WENT OFF. I THANK VICKI GARINGER FOR SUPPLYING ALL THE MILITARY INFO WE NEEDED TO GIVE TO STEPHANIE. I AM VERY PROUD TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT NEXT MONTH THE SECTION OF ROAD FROM THE BRIDGE TO COLONEL JOHN KELLY WILL BE DESIGNATED THE HONORARY EDWARD SHANNON HIGHWAY. I AM ATTACHING THE PROGRAM AND HOPE YOU CAN JOIN US.
