Reeves Designs Veterans Memorial
November 9, 2015
One of our very own has designed a Veterans Memorial in a cemetery in Lincoln.
Freshman Landon Reeves said it took him a year and a half to construct
You know we owe them a lot of respect, and that’s a debt that we cannot repay for the things they have done for us, so I think this will show that we care.”
— Landon Reeves
As an Eagle Scout, he wanted to take on the mission of designing, building and fundraising for the tribute at Bethesda Cemetery.
“I’ve always had a lot of respect for the military and veterans,” Reeves said.
The memorial has a flag pole that is encircled by four benches. There is also a headstone with a quote from General George Patton.
