Matule, whose daughter died of diabetes 20 years ago and whose wife died of Alzheimer's 5 years ago, moved to the Montana Veteran's Home after a late night medical emergency. Matule took care of his wife for 15 years, but now has decided he needs care himself. "They take good care of me here, but sometimes I get awful lonely," he said.</image:caption>

Garcia, 21, is the youngest person ever elected to the Fairfield city council and is the youngest councilman currently serving in California. Garcia ran on a pledge of improving community in Fairfield through helping youth and decreasing crime. His run galvanized youth in the city and after being elected he work diligently to put his plans into action. For nine months he lived his long time dream of serving Fairfield, until on Sept. 1, 2008 he was murdered in the streets of the city he loved.</image:caption>

The Garcia posters hang in classrooms, restaurants, city offices and on street poles throughout town. "We just wanted people not to forget about Matt and to keep working for Fairfield," Matt's step-father Raymond Courtemanche said of the signs. Every six months since his death old faded signs have been replaced with new ones.</image:caption>

The center, which Garcia worked hard for during his nine months on city council, was opened six months after his death. It's goal is to keep at-risk youth off the streets after school. The center furthers Garcia's campaign goals of building community through helping youth in Fairfield. It was originally set to be named after another well-known Fairfield resident, "But after Matt's death it was a no-brainer that we name it after him," Fairfield city councilman Chuck Timm said, adding that, "It's one small way that his life and legacy can live on in our town."</image:caption>

He gave me life, but he also gave me responsibility," said Keith Noble who is all smiles while playing basketball with his friends in Fairfield. Noble received one of Matt's kidneys after the killing and since the transplant has seen his life change dramatically. He can now play hoops with his friends. He is searching for a job, and he feels like he can finally live the life he wants to live. "I can live for me but I also need to give to others, because that's what Matt would have done," Noble said.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>One year to the day after the murder of Garcia his father Matthew Garcia sits in front of his son's grave at the Fairmont Cemetery in Fairfied. The city has changed in many ways since the councilman's passing and several things are being done in the Garcia's name to improve the city. However Fairfield will never know how much Garcia could have accomplished for the community he served and the city he believed in. "We lost a leader, but we gained a legacy." said Fairfield police chief Paul Bockrath. "In death he has galvanized a movement in our communtiy. Is it more than what he would have accomplished in life? Maybe not, but it's powerful and important for Faifield nonetheless."</image:caption>

"It was the only job I could find. It's not perfect, but it's work." Throughout 2008 and 2009, as the world economy slipped into the deepest recession in a generation, California was especially hard hit. Unemployment was rising,</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A field full of discarded vehicles turned in during the "Cash for Clunkers" program sits in front of car dealerships, two of which were recently closed, in Fairfield, Calif. The program, which provided vouchers toward the purchase of more efficient vehicles was extremely popular with consumers. However, critics say the improvements required in the bill -- as little as 1 mile per gallon for certain trucks -- were so lax that the government basically subsidized consumers who swapped one gas guzzler for another.</image:caption>

"I just can't believe that this place is gone," Echols said. "I'm going to everything I can for this boy, but everything is definitely going to be harder for us now."
