“This striking memorial is a wonderful tribute to those who have served in past wars and those who presently serve. Overlooking Lake Taylorville from the top of the spillway this breathtaking memorial will be enjoyed for many generations. The Lake Taylorville Veterans Point Memorial is the culmination of 4 years of effort from a dedicated group of individuals from the Downtown Taylorville Civic Organization headed up by committee chairman, Ron Mizer.” –Breeze Courier Newspaper
