Where Angels Play, Randolph MA

The NAGE family was proud to share in the construction of a playground in Randolph, MA with the Where Angels Play Foundation. This playground, constructed in Belcher Park, was built to honor the life of Boston Police Office Dennis "DJ" Simmonds, whose life was tragically lost from injuries sustained while apprehending the Boston Marathon bombers. 

The playground "will reflect his courage and dedication of service. His spirit and legacy will continue to provide years of joy for children in the Randolph community where he grew up."
