Take one Memorial down and we will build more…

“Take one Memorial down and we will build more ! We hope they love seeing it each day to remind all who pass of our rich heritage, history, culture, and the honor and valor of the brave men who fought under her. We are still here raising memorials over 160 years later… and we are not going anywhere !”
