In the 1950's, the Board of
Directors of the Fletcher Cemetery set aside an area and named
it Memorial Park.
With donations from the community, a monument was erected to
honor Veterans.
Veteran's names
have been engraved along the base of the monument throughout the
years, but now we are out of room. Also, the foundation of the
monument is cracking and crumbling.
The Cemetey Board would once again like
to ask the community for assistance in raising funds for the
monument.
The procedes will be used for the
reconstruction and maintenance of the monument.
The plans call for moving the existing monument forward
onto a stronger base with more room for Veteran's names to be
engraved.
The fund raising will consist
of selling engraved bricks which will be incorporated in the new
design of the monument.
The engraved bricks will be a permanent display to
commemorate a special event in someone's life, remember or honor
a friend or family member, or a show of appreciation for
supporting the project.
Individuals, families, organizations and businesses are
all welcome.
