The Village of Sanford works to reimagine a beloved memorial swept away by last year s flood.
The monument honored the nation s veterans, and the new memorial will be unveiled Wednesday.
âWe put so much of our heart and soul into building the first monument,â Kim Burgess said.
In July of 2018, a monument honoring veterans was dedicated to the Village of Sanford. During last May s flood, it was among the many precious memories that were swept away.
âAt first I was totally disoriented it was like I didnât even know where I was because the monument wasnât here anymore it was gone,â Burgess said.

Black Caps veteran Ross Taylor believes the hot form of batsman Will Young will put another spanner in the works for selectors ahead of the upcoming tour of England.
Young has continued to make a strong case for selection in the upcoming two-test series with England and the World Test Championship final against India, scoring back-to-back tons for English county side Durham.
Nearly 8,700 military veterans live in the four northeastern counties of Indiana â DeKalb, LaGrange, Noble and Steuben.
They received $77 million in veteransâ benefits during 2019, the most recent year for which statistics are available.
The potential is even greater. Estimates say that fewer than 40% of veterans are receiving the VA benefits to which they are entitled or even know where to get them.
That percentage likely is higher in northeastern Indiana, thanks to the efforts of dedicated veterans service officers in each county.
âWeâre all working very, very hard, and weâre all fighting for more resources for veterans,â said Travis Holcomb, former VSO for DeKalb County, who now helps part-time in the office. âWe all work together as a fraternity.â
