Jason Zunker was killed last year while he was directing traffic.
A black granite marker in his memory is located outside the Chippewa County courthouse.
Words Zunker had written -- in a letter to be opened if he died -- are etched into the granite.
They include a reference to God and the Bible.
The foundation challenges situations it feels violate the constitutional separation of church and state.
