Put police memorial in Canonsburg
I have heard and read about plans to build a new local memorial for fallen police officers and first-responders. This memorial should be a priority and only be built in Canonsburg because of the killing of Officer Scott Bashioum there last November.
It should be built in Canonsburg Town Park for future generations of visitors to see. There would be sufficient parking year-round for memorial events.
Bashioum walked the beat numerous times in Town Park. He shared his fishing stories, bringing smiles and laughter, while also keeping parkgoers safe.
The memorial should not be built in any other municipality.
