Keeseville Veterans Memorial Park

Megan Rock, Major of Keeseville was in attendance at the Adirondack Park Agency Meeting on April 16, 2009 in Ray Brook, which resulted in the variance approval for construction. The Veterans Memorial Park is located in Village of Keeseville, Essex County, Town of Chesterfield on the Ausable River. George Moore donated the land for this project. Absolutely one of the most beautiful veterans statue I have ever seen. Carved into the stone are these words OUR COMMUNITY HONORS THE COURAGE, SACRIFICE AND DEVOTION OF ITS VETERANS / MAY WE ALWAYS REMEMBER ALL WHO SERVED, FOUGHT AND DIED IN THE DEFENCE OF AMERICA’S FREEDOM AND WHO ASKED NOTHING IN RETURN LET US NOT LOSE WHAT THEY HAVE GAINED / INTO THE LIGHT / COMMISSIONED BY GEORGE MOORE 2009. A beautiful stone statue now is in place at the park and construction is continuing. This will be a wonderful place for veterans and the community to meet and share their memories, dreams and hopes.

Would like to comment my thoughts on the memorial statue and land in the Keeseville area. I believe it looks very nice and it was something this area needed. Hats off to Mr. George Moore for donating the land and statue for this wonderful project I saw many hands complete. Though was it true when Mr. Moore purchased this property there was a flood and the property needed to be shored up. Was there federal money given to the owner because of this? I am seeing many wonder endeavors and contributions to this area as well as overseas to help people and projects that are positive. Are they tax right offs? When Mr. Moore are you going to clean up your own business district of Keeseville that has been neglected for years?

Daily Horoscope for December 29

Virgo

If something is weighing on your mind it will start to affect your health, Virgo. It might make you feel tired or depressed, or it could dominate your thoughts. You know what you should do about it, of course, but it seems like too much effort or you want to pretend that it doesn't exist. Unfortunately, this escapist attitude won't make the problem go away and might even make it more tricky by the time you finally decide to tackle it.
