Caltrans workers put up a street sign honoring Emily Shane’s memory at the corner of Pacific Coast Highway and Heathercliff Road Monday morning. The sign now reads “Emily Shane Way” beneath “Heathercliff Rd.” Then 13-year-old Shane was struck and killed by a vehicle near the intersection in April 2010.

Shane’s family will host a ceremony Tuesday at Vital Zuman Organic Farm, 29127 PCH, at 3 p.m. in her honor. Tomorrow would have been Shane’s 15th birthday.
