Memorial plaque unveiling honoring Ashley Dias planned for Sept. 2
By Jennifer Wake
A memorial plaque honoring the late Ashley Dias will be dedicated at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 2 at Lafayette Plaza (corner of Plaza Way and Golden Gate Way in downtown Lafayette).
The cast brass plaque honors Dias, who died after being struck by a vehicle while performing his duties as a crossing guard in front of Stanley Middle School last year. The Dias family had suggested the plaque to the city to honor Dias and serve as a reminder to "Please Slow Down" and keep our community safe. Working with the Dias family, the city selected the planter between the Wayside Inn and the Park Theater as the location for the plaque.
The public is welcome to attend the event. Light refreshments will be served.
