We’ve all come to expect a good band and delicious food to purchase on National Night Out.
This year was no exception. Andy Cross put together a great event and the ribs were absolutely fantastic. But, this year’s NNO had a special purpose.
We formally dedicated our Four Corners Park in memory of Greg Freeman, Post-Dispatch columnist and SDCC member and officer.
The event was made quite memorable by the appearance of Greg’s son Will, who flew in from San Francisco for the event.
He spoke very movingly of his dad. Mayor Francis Slay also attended and spoke of Greg as a very honorable person. Greg’s sister, Cheryl McKinney, attended as did a number of Greg’s colleagues from journalism. Robert Joiner, now with Beacon, prepared a video about Greg and our neighborhood. Andy Cross has carved a beautiful wooden sign to demarcate the park that will be up very soon.
The event was bittersweet because anyone who knew Greg in the neighborhood is still saddened by his loss.
