Inscription.
Dedicated to all who came before us - from our pioneers to our parents, to these we owe our freedom, faith, country, community and lives. May we enjoy and protect the good things of life in Mid-America that our heritage has made possible.

The sculpture symbolizes the spirit, strength, and joy of a Midwest family close to rural America. Each member is a unique individual, yet united as a family in their celebration of life and the continuation of their growing heritage.
