This day holds special significance for me as a veteran, and I am particularly proud of our local tribute, the George A. Ingalls Veterans Memorial Plaza, located within the George Ingalls Equestrian Event Center in Norco, California. This Memorial Plaza is dedicated to honoring veterans and serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by so many.

The Plaza features a towering 70-foot flagpole surrounded by the “Circle of Honor,” which recognizes all veterans. A poignant part of the Memorial is the “Lest We Forget” wall, which honors Norco veterans who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Additionally, the facility includes an amphitheater designed for special ceremonies, providing a place for the community to gather and pay their respects.

I am grateful for your continued trust and support. May this Memorial Day be a time of reflection and gratitude as we honor the memory of those who have served our country with valor.
