Dedication day on Saturday brought a group of 40 family members, friends, and representatives of the Escalon Historical Society members together at the First Firehouse Monument in Main Street Park as the latest order of bricks was put in place by local contractor Roger Peters. The gathering had been arranged by George Olmos of Riverbank for his sister Juanita Barry Bovee to observe the placing of the brick commemorating the life of his nephew, her son, Blake Ryan Barry. He had been killed on Dec. 29, 2013, by a hit-and-run driver in Waterford.
