The Professional Firefighters of Maplewood on Thursday posted a photo on Facebook of what they say is the sculpture of Ryan Hummert, to be placed in Ryan Hummert Memorial Park near the picnic shelter.
Hummert was killed by a sniper in his first fire call on July 21, 2008. He was 22 years old. See more on the Ryan Hummert Memorial page on the Maplewood city website.
City Council approved the cost of the memorial in March. The Ryan Hummert Night at Busch Stadium is on Friday, May 15—Cardinals vs. Detroit Tigers. Tickets are $24 and $5 of each purchase goes to the Ryan Hummert Memorial Fund. Phone orders call: 645-3600; or order online.
