Item: School may get plaque for Dylan: CdA trustees reverse stance on boy’s memorial/Rasha Madkour, Spokesman-Review
DFO: I could never figure out why the Coeur d’Alene School Board got all squirrelly about where the plaque should go. Mebbe the trustees were uneasy that a man from North Carolina was cheerleading for a fund-raiser. I doubt that kids would give a plaque honoring a murdered boy much of a thought beyond the initial ceremony. Sometimes, I think, grownups over-think things.
