A Lasting Legacy The Peoria Veterans Honor Wall is an important and impactful element of the City of Peoria’s Veterans Memorial, located at Rio Vista Community Park, 8866 West Thunderbird Road.

About the Memorial The 88-foot-long, black, granite wall pays tribute to the five branches of the United States military: Air Force, Army, Marines, Navy and Coast Guard. The Great Seal of the United States is boldly represented on the first eight-foot panel, along with the seals of all five service branches.

A special tribute states, “This memorial is dedicated by the city of Peoria to all of those who have served and are serving our country in the defense of freedom.”

An inscription spanning the length of the wall bears the quote, “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and success of freedom.” – John F. Kennedy, 1961 Inaugural Address

Families and friends are encouraged to recognize an individual who has served in the U.S. Military by reserving space for their name and service details on the Peoria Veterans Honor Wall.

The Veterans Honor Wall is located at Rio Vista Community Park.

Each honor space will include the veteran's name, rank, branch and service years.

To be included in Peoria's annual Veterans Day Ceremony, order forms must be received by September 30.

“We’ve been blessed with the opportunity to stand for something, for liberty and freedom and fairness. And these things are worth fighting for, worth devoting our lives to.”

– President Ronald Reagan
