To
honor local veterans of WW I, WW II and Korean War, a Veterans’
Honor Wall was created and dedicated to them. A volunteer
committee gathered pictures, military service records &
medal awards printed on the plaques now mounted & displayed
on an honor wall in the community center. The community now
has the opportunity to recognize, honor and thank these heroes
for the sacrifices they made so we can enjoy the freedom we
have today.
Beneath
the plaques is a mural especially designed by Rita Swanson,
depicting the Army, Navy, Air Force with a Remembrance Day
scene included.
The
wall was officially dedicated on May 23,2009, with four WW
II veterans in attendance. The project continues as more veterans’
families continue to send information in.
