Veterans Memorial
In November 2013, a Veteran’s Memorial was dedicated at the Kent Central Gateway. Originally designed by artist George Danhires, a former marine, the piece consists of three bronze panels with figures representing members of the military. The memorial also features bricks that are available to be purchased in honor of veterans past or present at the base of the statue.
If you are interested in purchasing a brick for yourself or for a loved one the cost is $50. A personalized brick to keep for yourself is an additional $12. All Proceeds will pay for the ongoing maintenance of the Memorial. The brick will be placed at the Memorial and you will be notified when it is installed. The copy of the brick, if ordered, can be picked up at PARTA’s Administrative Office at 2000 Summit Rd in Kent, from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday – Friday.
