1. Dr. William P. Mahoney, Jr. Marker
Bill Mahoney was a longtime resident of Olmsted Falls who loved this park as much as he loved this community. In addition to his duties as a dedicated medical doctor and family man, he served his town as councilman and mayor while constantly encouraging community involvement. Due to his ability for marshaling local resources, and thanks to the helping hands of many members of the Olmsted Community, Bill's dream of a gazebo at the Village Green became a reality. Please enjoy this focal point of our community park, dedicated to the memory of a man dearly loved by his family and his town.
Erected 1991.
