The Tecumseh Rotary Club' Veterans Memorial honors loved ones who served our country in World War I, World War II, the Korean Conflict, Vietnam, and later conflicts of the Twentieth Century. Brave names go down in history with bricks placed in the walls of the Veterans Memorial. Bricks are not exclusive to veterans. What a great way to preserve family names and businesses in a timeless Tecumseh landmark.
It is located in the lot south of Tecumseh City Hall. The monument/mini-park features raised walls containing the memorial bricks so that they will not be walked upon. Plantings, benches, flags and the beautiful central monument make it a peaceful site to rest and contemplate.
Barbara Hertz, a well-known artist, has sculptured four bronze busts depicting the “Four Faces of Freedom”. They are displayed on the grey granite central monument. |
