Veteran's Memorial Garden
Dedicated on Monday
May 31, 2010
My name is Patrick T. O'Brien and I am a Life Scout with Troop 58
in Canyon Country, Ca. I designed and built this Veteran's Memorial Garden as a permanent reminder of our military's struggle
and sacrafice for all the freedoms we have and are able to enjoy. Both of my grandfathers, Patrick O'Brien and Thomas P. Conmay
served in the Army during World War 11 and were both wounded. Several of my uncles served in the Navy and one is still serving
today. A neighbor and friend of mine (Cole Larsen) was killed on November 13, 2004 in Iraq. I wanted a place for us to go
and give thanks to veterans for what they have done for us for the past, present and their future service. The Veteran's Memorial
is located at the Santa Clarita Elks Lodge 2379, 17766 Sierra Highway, Santa Clarita, Ca.
Yours in Scouting,
Patrick T. O'Brien
Life Scout Troop 58
