Stamford Veterans Memorial
[ central pedestal ]
Lest We Forget
Within this pedestal is placed a time
capsule recording for all time
those residents of Stamford who responded
to the call, some giving their lives
while serving in our past wars.
In future wars should we be
called again, the people of Stamford
pledge to preserve and perpetuate
this expression of gratitude for
such sacrifice.

Freedom from Want
To Those Who Gave
Their Lives in Our
Country's Wars
They shall grow not old as
we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them
nor the years condemn in
the glory of their youth
We will remember them.

Freedom from Fear
"Let us the living,
be here dedicated
to the great task
remaining before us.
That from these
honored dead we take
increased devotion to
that cause for which
they gave their last full
measure of devotion."
