Good that 'ordinary people' can become mayor - even better when they turn out to be special rather than ordinary.

Memorial benches are wonderful ways to remember someone, esp if they are placed in appropriate and significant places in memory of the individuals.

That is one of the nicest memorial benches I've seen, Jack!

What a fine dedication to a well liked Mayor.

We don't have any memorial benches in my area, I like the idea.
