Description of Memorial:
This is a memorial located in a quiet corner of Argo Park. It sits near trees and there is no real indication of its existence. I would not have even found this monument had I not been looking for a Geocache. I could not find any information about this specific memorial on the Internet. I think I would judge this memorial as almost forgotten.
