Family, friends, and members of the Fletcher Elementary School community gathered last week to dedicate a chestnut oak and memorial stone in memory of Johnny LaMancuso, who passed away in April shortly after his 10th birthday following a battle with Ewing sarcoma. According to Jamestown Public Schools, LaMancuso loved collecting and cracking acorns with his grandfather, and a tree near the playground at Fletcher School will grow in his memory, offering shade for generations of children at the school he loved. His siblings and close friends helped plant the tree before others joined in.
