Taken: September 25, 2023
Caption: Joseph W. Guyton Park Sign
Additional Description: Sign at one of the entrances to the park. It is on a red granite boulder and reads:

The man whose death on enemy soil marked the day when our civilization went face forward — the day when the enemy knew their assault on our present civilization had failed, would be proud to have his name on Guyton Park today. We as a community need to take a moment from our busy lives, and remind ourselves who Joseph Guyton was, and we need to clearly understand the significance of his death. We, the community of Evart, are Keepers of Guyton’s Legacy. Let us make sure it’s never forgotten.
