City of Longview Recognizes Paul Blakely's Contribution to the Community

On a cold and rainy afternoon in December, community leaders gathered at Habitat Circle in Longview to commemorate the renaming of the street to Paul Blakely Court in honor and recognition of all Paul did to help make Longview a good place to live for everyone in the community.

Many others attended the ceremony with Erika. There were friends, Habitat families, Habitat employees and Habitat volunteers as well as others whose lives Paul had touched and enriched

The next time you are in downtown Longview, take a ride down Center Street and look for the street sign that says Paul Blakely Court. It will make your heart feel good
