"REMEMBERING OUR FALLEN"
Traveling Photo Memorial to Remember Our Country's Fallen Who Called Tennessee Home Unveiling (open to the public) - Monday, October 26, 2015
"We must remember these American Heroes and speak their names when we see their family members. We can never forget those who sacrificed everything for our freedom," said Bill Williams, co-creator of the memorial. "While this memorial is about those who have died, it was created for the living…to help the families in their grief, while reminding the rest of us of the terrible price paid for our freedom by our current generation of military."
A very emotional memorial, "Remembering Our Fallen," is a stark reminder of the ultimate sacrifice made by over 130 Fallen from Tennessee killed in The War on Terror while wearing our country's uniform in a war zone. The photo memorial, which includes a military photo, as well as a non-military photo of each of the Fallen, will be unveiled to family members.
"Remembering Our Fallen" will be on display October 26th to November 2nd at
Bass Pro Shops Nashville
323 Opry Mills Dr.
Opry Mills, Nashville, TN 37214
Join us for an opening ceremony on October 26th at 3pm.
