Memorial Construction Begins |
| On July
4th, 2006 ground was broken for the construction of the DWI Memorial
of Perpetual Tears. We have finally begun construction on the
memorial that will pay tribute to the innocent victims of DWI. At
last, there will be a place of solace for those who have lost love
ones and/or been injured by the violent crime of DWI. |

| The Mayor of the City of Moriarty, Adan
Encinias opened the ceremony with the naming of the many people that
have been instrumental in the realization of this dream. It was a
beautiful day for acknowledgments and for tears of both joy and
sadness. Many guests attended including victims of DWI and
dignitaries such as NM Senator Sue Wilson Beffort, NM Representative
Rhonda King, and Terry Huertaz, Executive Director of Mothers
Against Drunk Driving of NM. It was a momentous day for all victims
of DWI. |
