Most of us would like to honor the men and women who have served our country.  Many ask what they can do?

We ask you to honor our veterans by helping to preserve their memories.
You may make a donation to the museum or you may purchase an engraved brick, with your Veteran's name from the Museum. The bricks are placed in front of the museum at the main entrance.

In Loving Memory of
Lance Cpl. Adam Loggins

A Wartime Prayer

Dear Lord,
Lest I continue my complacent way,
Help me remember that somewhere,
somehow out there,
A man died for me today,

As long as there be war,
I then must ask & answer
Am I worth dying for?

by Eleanor Roosevelt
