This memorial is dedicated to the men and women whom have
fought overseas and now have paid the final price here at home.
We could not stand idly by as Veteran suicides swept the country.
Every image standing before you was drawn from a photograph
of a Veteran who lost their battle in the War at home.
This memorial is meant to remind us of our loss, to amend the past,
honor the present and prevent this from happening in the future.
The current national statistic for Veteran suicide in America
is at twenty two per day.
We offer our sincere gratitude to every family member of the
silhouettes representing the men and the women standing before
you, for your great courage in allowing us to build this memorial.
