Purple Heart Memorial

Combat Wounded Veterans

Dedicated to all men and women wounded in all our wars.

1782 The Military Order of the Purple Heart 1932

My stone is red for the blood they shed.

The medal I bear is my country’s way to show they care.

If I could be seen by all mankind

maybe peace will come in my lifetime.

Marker is on Wheeling Avenue (U.S. 40), on the right when traveling west.
