The Gazette was informed this week that a memorial plaque honoring the late Hank Carrillo at the entrance to Shiells Park was destroyed. Some ignorant fool smashed the plaque with a rock. The Gazette photographed the scene and recovered as much of the plaque as possible. Hank was an inspirational friend to many, particularly to high school team sports. The electronic scoreboard at the football field is dedicated to his memory, as signs at the softball and baseball fields. It’s hoped that this plaque will soon be restored to its place of honor at Shiells Park.
