the victim or survivors do, or did reside here; or the victim
was here at the time of the crime.
- Stone information: the victim's
name, date of birth and date of death.

will be engraved on a first-come basis until all stones in the
stream are used. Thereafter stones will be added to other areas
of the Garden

The
Garden of
Peace
is a memorial
commemorating
victims
of homicide.
Each victim
in this
garden is
united by
the circumstances
that led
to their
death. Families
and friends
of these
victims
are united
in their
loss, in
their efforts
to end violence,
and in their
continual
search to
find some
peace. It
is here
in this
Garden,
we can find
some Peace.
The river
stones with
the names
of the victim
are placed
along the
dry river
bed. In
order to
locate a
particular
stone we
have divided
the garden
into five
sections;
A-E. The
name of
each victim
is listed
alphabetically
with a letter
beside it
indicating
the approxamite
location
of their
stone. We
hope this
will assist
you in more
easily locating
the stone
of your
loved one.
