Park Dedication


The Highlands at Langley proudly announces the public park located within the plat of The Highlands, the Mildred Anderson and Faye Bangston Memorial Park, was dedicated on Monday, May 10, 2010.

Mayor Paul Samuelson dedicated the park to the memory of Faye Bangston and Mildred Anderson. The park, along with the trails through The Highlands, are open to the public to enjoy some quiet time among the trees.

Longtime friends and partners, Erling Bangston and Linda Anderson, named the park for their mothers, Faye Bangston and Mildred Anderson. Years ago, when asked by Erl what he could give Faye for Mother’s Day she replied, “Perhaps when you develop a nice property, you can name a park after me”. He is finally able to fulfill her wish. Mildred Anderson was a longtime resident of Langley and neighbor to the property that is now The Highlands. Both Erl and Linda, knowing how much their mothers enjoyed the outdoors and gardening, honor their spirit and character with this dedication.
