Metro Memorials To Honor Fallen Workers
posted 6:22 pm Thu July 12, 2007 - Washington
Metro has chosen memorials to honor employees who have been killed on the job.
A polished black granite pylon with a stainless steel "M" logo will stand on the mezzanine at Metro Center. It will be surrounded by a granite circle with an inscription spelling out the names, job titles, years of service and the year of death of the fallen employees.
A four-by-five foot black granite plaque will be placed at Metros maintenance and training center in Hyattsville. The memorials will be installed early next year.
Metro has also created a scholarship fund for children of employees who die on the job.
