On the 11th Month, the 11th Day and the 11th Hour - Veterans Remembered
Summary: Four (4) months after the Oconee Veterans Memorial was dedicated on July 4, Veterans, family and friends meet again at the site in the Veterans Memorial Park to remember those for which the Memorial was built. Special recognition was shown to the two men who gave time, effort and "heart" to see the plans become reality - the most beautiful Veterans Memorial in the Region.
Quote: “This is by far more attractive than any other Veterans Memorial in the Region, and it exudes deep spiritual and patriotic feelings. It makes me again proud to have served my country.” A WWII Veteran. |
