Our mission is to permanently honor all past and present veterans from East Texas. In order to accomplish this goal, we will build a Veterans Memorial that will forever perpetuate the memory of those Sons and Daughters who fought or gave their lives for freedom with a place of honor and reverence where family, descendents, comrades, and future generations can find peace in the memory of lost loved ones.
