Website WW2 Monument

Up-grade construction of a WW II Monument was completed November 2024. It is located at the intersection of State routes 690 and 502 Spring Brook Township Pa. 18444. The original monument was made in the 1940’s. It is a single marble stone that lists 79 people from Spring Brook Township Pennsylvania that served in World War II. This stone has been placed on an impressive red, white and blue pedestal. 

A bronze plaque with a prayer for World Peace is placed in the shadow of the marble stone on a 400 pound bluestone, which also shadows the marble stone. Reading and reflecting upon the prayer is a way for you to take a step toward world peace. A 15 foot Heroes History wall has been added adjacent to the monument pedestal. 

World Peace Plaque:

The Shadow of War & Individual Destruction will remain omni-present until the individuals of the world practice living by the Golden Rule. Do your part and don’t worry if others do theirs. We could only be one of three things in this life. We could be a plus, we could be a zero, we could be a minus when our Book of Life is closed. We individuals have many opportunities to travel upon roads which are abandoned that should not be abandoned. My prayer is that you will be a plus.

Special Recognition Plaque:

“In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”. Opportunities to travel useful civic roads are created when we are in harmony with the above Golden Rule. The blue stone for this Shadow Of War Monument, which offers a reminder of an age old simple solution to end conflicts, was donated by Harold Litts & his two sons Erick and Brian.
