The entrance road to the new Buttercup Ranger Station will be dedicated to the memory of Border Patrol Agent Luis Aguilar, who lost his life in the line of duty at the site this past January.

“Border Patrol Agent Luis Aguilar made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country. The Border Patrol will never forget Luis or his family and his memory will live on forever," said Yuma Station Patrol Agent in Charge Tim York.

"He was a cherished husband, father, friend and patriot. The road dedication will serve as a reminder to all citizens of this country that Agent Aguilar gave his life in the defense of our freedoms.â€
