11-16-12: Courtesy of YNN. Nearly 30 years after a Wales Park was named to honor a fallen local soldier, it finally received a sign reflecting his name. Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz unveiled a sign Friday designating Hunter’s Creek Park in honor of Sgt. Mark Rademacher. Rademacher died in combat during the invasion of Grenada in 1983. Shortly thereafter, the Erie County Legislature made a resolution naming the park for the Wales Center native, but it wasn’t followed with a sign.
