School Justin Dietrich, students Niccolas Sundeen and
Andrew McCray; and also on staff at LCHS, Patrick Hake.
These four are primarily responsible for a new bench
installed at Kicakpoo Creek Park in Lincoln on
Wednesday. The bench was Hake's idea to honor Kennedy
Freese, who lost her life in a vehicle accident in 2018.
He then took the idea to Dietrich, who in turn assigned
the project to Sundeen and McCray.
