“As I stood in front of our finished product the tears of joy ran down my face. I had to touch each plaque with deeply revered honor. My Grampa and Dad would be so proud. Thanks for letting me play a small part in such a wonderful project.” ~Joe Franklin
“To all that worked on and with the memorial project: Your partners at the YMCA wish to congratulate you on your accomplishments. We wish to thank you for making the armory more beautiful. Your hard work will last as a statement to all who served from our community, and to your efforts as well. We value our relationship and plan on further improvements both inside and out side our Amory together.” ~Dean Bellack Lake Plains YMCA Chairman
