This fountain is dedicated to the memory of Cadillac native Kris Eggle, who was shot and killed in the line of duty at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument while pursuing members of a drug cartel hit squad who fled into the United States after committing a string of murders in Mexico. The visitor center at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument is now named in Kris' honor.
The sign on-site reads:
Dedicated to the memory of Kris Eggle (August 15, 1973 - August 9, 2002)
National Park Service Ranger and in honor of all Public Safety Officers who so ably protect and serve.
