LAKE COUNTY -- Two amendments attached to the newly passed state budget bill designate portions of northeast Ohio roadways in memory of two Marines.
The bill renames the portion of State Route 2 within the city of Willoughby as the "Brian Montgomery Memorial Highway."
Montgomery served as a Lance Corporal in the Marines and died in action while serving in Iraq on August 1, 2005.
The bill would also designate part of State Route 44 within Lake County, from State Route 2 to the Headlands Beach State Park, as the "Andy Nowacki Memorial Highway".
Nowacki, a Lance Corporal in the Marines and also a Grand River police officer was killed in action in Iraq on February 26, 2005.
The state budget including the amendments renaming the highways was passed on Thursday.
