Update On Larry Maxham Park
This is what Larry Maxam Park will look like. Photo by Cathy Nicholls Coyle, BHS 67.
As you know Pacific Park in Burbank over near Valhalla Cemetery was voted on by Burbank City Council to rename the park in honor of Cpl. Larry Leonard Maxam, the city's and a BHS alumni who was killed in action in vietnam and received the Medal of Honor. They talked about Larry and the naming of Pacific Park on Memorial Day. I talked to Micky Depalo BHS 64 who approched the city council said that instead of everything being ready by Memorial Day was postphoned as he needed to ask for more money. So the Flagpole and Plaque and marker should be ready sometime in the fall and then they will have a dedication ceremony at the actual memorial. Micky wants to spread the word as he would like as many BHS grads and people in the Burbank area to attend. They had a large poster of what the memorial will look like at the Memorial Day Ceremonies yesterday. I will keep everyone updated.
