later in life some times too late that at the end of the road we have not left much of a mark in the sands of time this marble statue is a perma nent immutable tribute to those things we hold dear and to those men who in another day laid down their lives to preserve them for us in it we can leave our mark for future generations it is the mark of a great man who plants a tree under whose shade he
