Ohio Fallen Heroes Memorial

This is a memorial to those Ohioans that have lost their lives in the War on Terror. It's set just outside of the town center, next to the library.

[Kerri Foulks, 10/24/2013]

Begun in 2005, the memorial displays a cross for every Ohio soldier who's died in the line of duty in a War on Terror combat zone since September 11, 2001. It's in Sunbury because the town is near the geographic center of Ohio.
