it's nice that they acknowledged gunners passing.

now if i just knew what the significance of a Senate Resolution was. is it maybe just that, a simple acknowledgement of something?

and on Wednesday Jan 15 Senator Nieves introduced SB 725.....

SB 725 - This act designates the bridge on Missouri Route N over the Meramec River in Franklin county as the "Marc Perez Memorial Bridge".

I knew there was a reason I like Senator Nieves! It's really great to see such an awesome tribute to a great man.

Glad to see Sen Nieves introduced the Resolution and bridge name. I doubt he did it at the request of my email; but I did suggest to him and few others to give careful thought to renaming SAPA to the MPSAPA.

The resolution documents the approval of the body to show special recognition to an individual/organization. Doesn't carry much weight, but looks good on a wall in a frame.
