Rosemary Hagen, who stood at the same intersection holding signs for peace for many years, will present Ranallo with a print by French artist Fernand Leger. The work depicts doves nesting in the remains of what looks like a cannon. Hagen proposed the events honoring Ranallo. Hagen and Dick Nelson, another veteran peace sign holder, will make remarks.
