MEMORIAL FLAG PROJECT

The North Royalton Lions Club Veterans Memorial Project

A memorial flag project at the North Royalton Cemetery on Royalton Road. It has been dedicated to servicemen in all branches of our military.

Ground breaking began spring 2008 at the memorial site at the SW corner of the cemetery. We have seven flags representing all our military divisions. It was dedicated to the City on Memorial Day 2008. Pictures are on our photo page.

“It’s about time,” said Lion Fred DeAnna, project chairman and veteran, “we need to honor all those who gave their lives so we could have what we have now.”

The project consisted of putting up all flags and poles of our military branches to pay tribute to all servicemen. There is a walkway with brick pavers on the wall and landscaping. The City has graciously donated the area needed at the cemetery.

The North Royalton Lions Club is a non-profit organization, which has been serving the community since 1973. All the money raised from different fundraisers is donated to various Lions charities and needy families. For additional information on this project please, contact Lions Fred DeAnna (237-9760), Bob Ahrens (237-4754), Chuck Gibson (237-9311), Paul Moraco (237-1981) or Tony Sandora (237-3768).
