1. Veterans Memorial

Inscription. Freedom is Not Free
God Bless America
In memory and honor of all Lunenburg County Veterans

🎺
Day is done.
Gone the sun,
From the lakes
From the hills
From the sky.
All is well.
Safely, rest.
God is near.

Fading light.
Dims the sight.
And a star gems the sky
Gleaming bright.
From afar,
Drawing, near,
Falls the night.

Thanks and praise,
For our days,
Neath the sun
Neath the stars
Neath the sky.
As we go,
This, we, k,know.
God is near.

Erected by VFW Post 9954, initiated by Sergeant Cornelius (Bud) Arvin.
