Road Dedication Set to Honor Local Fallen Soldier on November 2 in Avella

AVELLA – A portion of Route 50 in Avella will be dedicated in honor of Lt. Col. Juanita Warman during a special ceremony at the Avella Volunteer Fire Department on November 2 at 11 a.m., according to Senator Camera Bartolotta (R-46).

Lt. Col. Warman was one of 13 people killed in the domestic terrorist shooting at Fort Hood in 2009. The event coincides with the 10th anniversary of the shooting.

Bartolotta sponsored a bill to rename the road to honor the life and legacy of one of the region’s heroes and recognize her amazing courage in the face of imminent danger.

Media coverage is invited and appreciated.
