ROCHELLE — Fundraising for the statue honoring veterans at the Lawnridge Cemetery has been proceeding at a steady pace with pledges now at 80 percent of the final goal.
A heartfelt thanks to all those who have donated or pledged to this project. This statue will be the first piece of bronze art in the City of Rochelle and will be situated at Lawnridge Cemetery in the location shown in the photo. The City of Rochelle will install a new slab just south of the cannon. The cannon will be moved to this location, opening up an area for the statue as shown in the photo.
