Two days after I did the post on Veterans Memorial Gold Star Healing and Peace Garden this past Wednesday, this memorial garden was a stop on a daily walk.  Several people recognized me from that post and told me that was the reason they stopped to see it.  They told me that they were going to sponsor some bricks and wanted to see things written on bricks that were already placed.  I’m revisiting a short section from that post last Wednesday, since this will be the lead YorksPast post for a week.

Although the garden is complete, I understand about 25% still needs to be raised to pay off all the outstanding costs.  I’m going to get three adjacent bricks inscribed as follows to honor the service of my Dad and my Nephew.  Why not consider doing likewise by inscribing several bricks.  Check the web site www.goldstargarden.com
