The memorial is a simple wooden plaque with the names of veterans on it. The Veterans have died in Iraq, WWI, WWII and Korea. It's unknown how then men are connected to the church.

The Plaque reads: "Remember our veterans who died for us." There's a cross in the middle, then a quote from the Bibble:

That A Man Lay Down
His Life For
His Friends."
