jane warner plaza become a reality. even in the last month of jane's last, she expressed a desire to be backlogged of her legacy serving as a police officer. her concern was of the merchants, the castro neighborhood people, the homeless and indigent, and even for the dogs and cats. since her death, we have heard testimony from an incredible number of people who said that jane made such a difference in their lives. she found jobs, paid for shelter and food, even took care of their pets while they straightened out their lives. jane's passion was truly for community policing in the best sense of that word. she saw a need for all the branches of police work to be actively involved in the city. she truly had a desire to work collapse if -- collaboratively. we feel the spirit lives on in the community, that her legacy lives on in the lives of those she touched, and at the plaza is a well-deserved tribute and memorial to one who cared so much about people. sincerely, jane warner's family ." i would like only to conclude that i

has been my honor to have called officer jane warner my friend for almost 20 years. i met her only a few months after she came to california. it was a time of transition in both our lives, and we had many conversations about what the future may hold. having a clause in the castro named after her never came off as a possibility -- having a plaza in the castro named after her. if she were here, she would ask us to step away from our emotions and to answer the question -- what makes any person worthy of such an honor? i have reached the conclusion that one of the important reasons to name a public location after someone is so that they are never forgotten. not by the people who knew the person, but by the younger generations to come, so people who have never met this person can hear this person's story, to provide for them a shining example to inspire the best of future generations by teaching them about the best of those that came before. i asked myself -- did she lead a life the we want future generations to aspire to live? before she came to the castro, she had an am
