The North Ridgeville Veterans Memorial Board set out years ago to honor local veterans who've served and died for our country."We're long overdue for something this grand because we owe them so much more," said Mark Steinbrunner , president of the North Ridgeville Veterans Memorial at the corner of Bainbridge Road and State Route 83."This is about our veterans and some of our veterans never returned home and we're going to be honoring them," Steinbrunner said.
Steinbrunner also said countless donors lent their expertise and resources to create a beautiful space for the public to pay their respects and learn about military service. Among service flags is a tranquil fountain surrounded by plaques of fallen heroes from North Ridgeville. There are also pavers bearing the names of service members, local and beyond, who put protecting our country and democracy first despite the unforgiving realities of war.
Monday, the city's Memorial Day Parade will begin at the high school and end at the new Veterans Memorial. A ceremony will include three flyovers featuring World War 2 planes and fighter jets. Several special guests will be on hand, including a Gold Star Family.
