I think this memorial is a great idea. I've visited the Vietnam Memorial also on the west side of the Capitol grounds and have felt it's strength and value oft. Both are meaningful ways to honor those who have served country and community so valiantly. All I can say is thank you....

My wife's great grandfather was killed in the line of duty. She went to the capitol building earlier this week as her grandfather placed his father's plaque in the wall. This is a wonderful tribute to those who have lost loved ones to thoughtless acts of crime.
