This memorial is located in front of Lindenwold Borough Hall, 2001 Egg Harbor Road. It was dedicated on May 25, 1987.
The monument reads: "This monument is to honor the past, present, and future members of the department. These men and women devote their life and honor protecting the life, business and the property of our people. Surely they deserve this honor, and with the help of all our people, they will continue their devotion to our community."
Names of fallen officers are listed on the stone by order of rank.
There is a neat little polygonal paver path which leads to the three memorials, this one being on the far left. The monument is of cut gray, granite (or a stone facsimile) so it resembles a cemetery stone. All stones have been cut so as to resemble a keystone. This monument stands about three feet high and rests on a stone socle, about half a foot high. A flag pole lies to the rear and center of the three memorials. In front, the paver path gives way to a paver patio, with a single stone bench in the center of the patio and directly to the right of this waymark for reflection and thought. The patio spans the entire width of all three memorials. There is small decorative landscaping (flowers, mulch, etc.) which surrounds each stone marker.
