Our memorial recognizes local veterans.  Not only the dead, but those who served.  It also honors their families, for just as the veteran sacrificed, our veteran’s family gave a lot, too.  Whether they came home without a scratch, seriously injured, or with an honor guard, they all have stories.

Our local media and civic groups often share their stories.  We want you to take a look at a few of them.  We also hope that you will be as moved as we are at what they share.

 

We’ll begin here.
