Fletcher Cemetery Veterans Memorial Dedication

I attended the dedication ceremony for the Fletcher Cemetery Veterans Memorial on Memorial Day last week.  Despite an inordinately windy day, the rains held off and the ceremony was well received.  Easterday Construction was contracted to provide the new memorial foundations, plaza and retaining walls.  We donated the flag pole foundation and erection of the pole as well as some modifications to the sprinkler system.

As discussed previously here, we were a bit hesitant to take on the relocation of this priceless monument, but things came off without a hitch.  (Move pictured here.)  It looks good in its new location.  It is now flanked by two new stone obelisks ready to receive the memorialization of future veterans.

Congratulations to the Fletcher Cemetery board for the completion of a great project.  It will stand as a symbol of their respect for veterans for generations to come.
