In a press conference yesterday April 19th, 2011, it was announced that the 60 Freeway (from Atlantic Blvd to the city of Rosemead) will be named in honor of Bobby! Thanks in part to the efforts of State Assemblymember Mike Eng and fundraising by BSMF to make the signs possible, this honor was able to be achieved.
Memorial signs will be erected in Bobby’s memory on Friday.
