A memorial is set to take place at 11 a.m. today, at Rabobank Stadium in Salinas to honor the life of late Mayor, Joe Gunter.

The memorial will begin with a procession starting at Salinas High School with Gunter's close friends and family, that will lead to the stadium.

Organizers say health and safety measures will be taking place.

Temperature checks will be done for everyone who comes in and face masks will be given out to those in attendance who do not have one.

The memorial service will include a wreath presentation, guest speakers and military-style flyovers to pay tribute to Gunter.
