The City of Attalla purchased an existing building on Fifth Avenue at a tax sale after the death of it’s previous owner. The city then decided to create a small city park in lieu of the existing building. The park was named by the City Council in honor of Karen Means, Mayor Larry Means wife, at a meeting the Mayor was absent from. Loved by all, Karen Means passed away from Alzheimer’s disease in 2019. Ron Catoe and Murray designed the park with the hopes it would have purpose in its design and intent. We are honored we got to participate in assisting the City with the creation of this beautiful spot where people can rest, relax, and refresh with a picnic. The park was dedicated on October 10 at 2 p.m to those affected by Alzheimer’s disease – “people who can no longer remember”.
