Late Hollywood actor, Ray Liotta will be honored in his hometown of Union Township, New Jersey following his death at 67.
The Goodfellas actor died in his sleep in the Dominican Republic, on Thursday, May 26.
The iconic actor had been shooting the film Dangerous Waters in the Dominican Republic when he passed.
Mayor Manuel Figueiredo has now revealed that plans are being made to honor the actor, who died last week at the age of 67.
Officials in Union Township are considering naming a youth baseball field in honor of his performance as Shoeless Joe Jackson in the 1989 classic Field of Dreams. Figueiredo said plans would not be finalized until Liotta’s family has had time to grieve his passing.
The actor, best known for his roles in Field of Dreams and as Henry Hill in 1990’s Goodfellas, was lauded by local officials in the wake of his passing Thursday.
