A bench, placed in Richards Park, was donated in memory of Waxahachie High School senior Austin Elbert, who died from a fatal car crash earlier this year.
The bench was donated by Americase Fabrication and the Class of 2001, reading In honor of Austin Elbert: A devoted WHS student, athlete, and friend to many.
The bench includes Elbert s baseball number 17, and his signature taken from his driver s license. We re excited about that. We re doing more. We re actually going to have a tree planted in front of the school, in honor of Austin, shared Waxahachie Principal Tonya Harris.
A new oak tree is being donated to the school and will be planted in between the front entrance and Harris office. A small plaque will be added next to the tree, in memory of Elbert.
