Click Announces Naming of Teresa Miller-Martin 9/11 Memorial Highway in Sandusky County

COLUMBUS – State Representative Gary Click (R-Vickery) announces the official dedication of the newly named Teresa Miller-Martin 9/11 Memorial Highway, a portion of State Route 19 in Sandusky County between Link Road and Interstate 90. Click originally proposed the dedication through HB 393 of the 134th General Assembly, and the measure was ultimately passed as a component of HB 578 in the following months.

Teresa Miller-Martin was a 1974 graduate of Lakota High School who grew up in the small town of Millersville. After high school, Teresa went on to become a model for JC Penny and worked at the post office before taking a position that led to her career in finance. Ultimately, she accepted a job at Fort Belvedere where she joined her supervisor in a move to the Pentagon shortly after.

“Naming a portion of State Route 19 in her honor is a small way of showing that we will never forget Teresa and those who perished on that terrible day.” Click said. “I feel truly honored to have been able to contribute to her memory.”

Teresa will always be remembered by her grace and kindness, her selfless love, deep faith, and passion for disco music. She loved her husband John dearly and took pride in the Victorian home that they shared. She was an active member of the Fredericksburg, Virginia local community and was a beloved Sunday school teacher. Thousands of American lives were lost during the horrible events of 9/11, and Teresa was one of the many individuals robbed of her life by perpetrators of evil.
