Welcome to the City of Woodburn

West Coast Bank Memorial

On Tuesday, May 26, 2009, a beautiful Memorial was unveiled at the West Coast Bank, 2540 Newberg Hwy, Woodburn, Oregon in honor of three Police Officers.

West Coast Bank Memorial

Oregon State Police bomb technician Senior Trooper William Hakim and Woodburn Police Captain Tom Tennant died in the line of duty December 12, 2008, when an explosive device detonated at the West Coast Bank, Newberg Hwy in Woodburn. Police Chief Scott Russell was seriously injured in the blast. Their sacrifice and service was honored during the unveiling of the memorial at the West Coast Bank. This Memorial, design and built by Woodburn Resident Don Sprague, is a permanent structure reminding everyone of their sacrifice in keeping the citizens of Woodburn safe.

The City of Woodburn wishes to thank all of those that made this memorial a part of Woodburn and their work is greatly appreciated. Additionally, the City of Woodburn would like to express their thanks and gratitude to those that took the time from their busy morning to stop and be part of the unveiling or as you slowly drove by and waved. Your continued support of the City of Woodburn has not gone unnoticed.

Thank You!
