On the tenth anniversary of his passing, Boston City Hall was lit up green to honor the life of Boston’s longest-serving mayor Tom Menino. Mayor Michelle Wu took to Instagram Wednesday to honor one of the city’s most beloved mayors. “To know Mayor Menino was to see how much he loved Boston and its people,” Mayor Wu said.
“Mayor Menino’s big heart and unwavering courage made our city a better place and his focus on the next generation set Boston on the path towards a brighter future. I am forever grateful for his kindness and leadership.” Thomas Michael Menino, a lifelong Hyde Park resident, became acting Mayor of Boston in 1993 after the departure of Ray Flynn.
