Mike Butler Shares Plans for Cedar Falls Veterans' Memorial Park

Wednesday, October 9, 2019 - Cedar Falls has a large community of veterans who served honorably in all branches of the US military.  Many area residents gave the ultimate sacrifice in life or limbs for or freedoms. But when the battles are over, the veterans' personal wars begin as they try to assimilate back into civilian life.   

Vietnam War Navy Veteran Mike Butler presented a way that citizens can keep their veterans' memories alive by buying commemorative bricks at the Cedar Falls Veterans Memorial Park on Waterloo Road for $50 each. These brick will both remind us of their loved ones who have served in the military to defend our freedoms and help defray the cost of maintenance of the park.  We thank all of our veterans for their military service.
