About the Memorial

The Freedom is Not Free Memorial commemorates each branch of the armed services with five monuments that rise up to complement two granite walls inscribed with the names of veterans from the surrounding community, the state, and the nation. Stone benches situated atop a paver plaza, each facing a memorial wall honoring our veterans, create a sanctuary for gratitude and quiet reflection.

The Monument
  • Five Granite Monuments tower 12 feet above a circular granite plaza to commemorate the five branches of our armed services.
  • Two granite walls remember the names of those who have courageously served their country.
  • Two stone benches create a gathering place for gratitude and quiet reflection. Individuals and families alike will be humbly reminded that indeed, Freedom is not Free.
  • Granite pavers create the inner plaza circle that carries the names of family, friends, community members, and business partners who have made the Freedom is not Free Memorial possible, ensuring that the brave men and women who have proudly served, and in some instances made the ultimate sacrifice, are recognized, honored and remembered.
