Louisa in Louisa County, Virginia — The American South (Mid-Atlantic)
In Memory of All Veterans
Dedicated Nov. 11, 2000
In honor of the men and women who proudly served their country in the Armed Forces of the United States of America
Turn back your thoughts this evening tide,
To the thousands of of buddies who fought and died,
they lie asleep 'neath a mantle of snow,
And the crosses mark them, row on row.
