On Memorial Day 2004, the St. Croix Valley made a permanent and lasting statement of thanks to its Veterans: we dedicated a Memorial that honors those who made the ultimate sacrifice, those who served honorably in the past, those serve today, and future service men and women. Despite a rain shower, several hundred people enjoyed the patriotic sounds of the 34th Infantry Division "Red Bull" Band, the Croix Chordsmen Chorus, and keynote speaker Chaplain (MAJ) John Morris who recently returned from serving in Iraq. Our Committee Chairman John Kraemer, and the entire Veterans Memorial Committee wishes to thank all those who made this memorial possible through generous gifts and support that was shown over the years in numerous ways, and all who made Dedication Day run so smoothly. The Memorial will stand as a lasting tribute for generations to come.
