NORWICH – After approximately a year of construction, the dedication of the Norwich VFW’s memorial was held on Monday, and VFW representatives said pavers are currently open for those who wish to dedicate a place veteran sacrifice.
The dedication ceremony was held on Monday afternoon at the Norwich Veterans of Foreign Wars building. VFW Commander of Post 2782 Joe Santiago spoke at that event and discussed the creation of the memorial.
According to Santiago, the project concept was created two and a half years ago as he and the VFW board were discussing how they could do something to better remember the combat veterans of Chenango County.
“Construction started last year, and is almost completely done with only some lighting and a few odds and ends left to complete,” said Santiago.
