"Lest We Forget"
On these pavers, we find the names of Veterans from Snyder County, who died while serving their country, dating from the Civil War to the present day.

Many Civil War veterans who were killed in action are buried in cemeteries south of the Mason Dixon line in a mass grave, or in unmarked graves. World War I and World War II veterans were also buried in the same manner throughout Europe in National Cemeteries. Most of the casualties from the Korean, Vietnam, Iraq and War on Terrorism are buried in local cemeteries. These soldiers were at one time residents of Snyder County. We must never forget the sacrifices they all made, so that we can enjoy the freedom we have today.
 
Erected 2014.
