On October 1st 2017 Hannah Ahlers was tragically killed at the Route 91 Harvest Festival, the worst Mass shooting in American history. Hannah was a resident of Beaumont, Ca. Her husband Brian and her three children still reside in Beaumont. Hannah had a special place in Beaumont. She’d often be involved with her oldest daughters sport activities, rooting for her daughter and the city she was proud to live in. Her family, her friends, and all those she touched here don’t forget her. I truly believe that Hannah deserves some love from the city she loved to live in. I’m taking the initiative to have the city of Beaumont rename a park in the city in honor of Hannah. Cities like Corona have already done this for those lost on October 1st and I’m asking the city of Beaumont to do the same thing. City officials have been receptive to the idea but I think with enough folks supporting the cause we can really make this a reality. Hannah was what Beaumont represented. Friendly, outgoing, passionate, and she deserves a place for her family and friends to go to where we can all honor her.

Seeing the growing tally for Hannah brings me back to the soccer fields where she spent so many afternoons cheering on her kids. Please take a moment to forward this link to your neighbors so we can reach our goal and finally get this park renamed in her honor.

There should be a place or park in each of our 58 Angels hometown where those that loved and knew them have a place to go to. To feel closer to them and honor each one of them. Hannah’s park is a perfect place to start and I hope those that make this decision regarding the park listen to each of us. Xo

I am a survivor and have friends who knew and loved her very much. I think it would be great for her children to have a great memory of their mother like this!!! I hope this happens for the community and her family!!!

I was also affected by route 91 losing my husband, and we dedicated a softball field called remembrance field. Having that small piece of sanctuary where people can go and remember him has definitely helped me through this process and I think it would be beneficial to agree to this petition.

Please consider renaming a park in Hannah's honor. She was a loving and caring mother who was raising her family in a community she loved. She was a ray of sunshine and truly made a positive impact in so many lives.
