I found this tree after a wrong turn trying to find my way back out of Johnstown. This is dedicated to Richard P. Gates who was killed in vietnam. To find this memorial Take Rt.30 North out of Fonda and into Johnstown, turn left onto S. Melcher St. Take this road up 3 intersections and take a right, I believe this is 4th street. Anyways stay straight for the next hundred feet or so, another intersection or two. The tree will be in the middle of the road on the corner of S. Market St. & W. Fourth Ave. Happy Waymarking, Swizzle & Family
THIS TREE PLANTED IN MEMORY OF RICHARD P. GATES SPECIALIST 4TH CLASS KILLED IN VIETNAM FEB. 13, 1969
Location of the tree: Middle of the road in a residential area
