Veteran Memorial Bricks

Those wishing to honor a military veteran may purchase an engraved brick at the Puyallup Veteran’s Memorial in Pioneer Park. The memorial honors veterans who have courageously served our country in this important way.

The memorial includes a statute depicting a soldier who is bending down to help a comrade. The soldier’s hand is extended, reaching out to the living, symbolizing the need to remember all those who have fought for freedom.

A bronze plaque lists the names of Puyallup veterans who have given the ultimate sacrifice of their lives in service. A small courtyard surrounds the statue, where bricks suitable for engraving have been placed. Orders for memorial bricks are now being accepted through Friday, March 27, 2020. Bricks may be ordered online via the Veteran’s Memorial webpage, contacting the City Clerk’s Office at 253-841-5480, or by visiting the City Clerk’s Office at Puyallup City Hall, 333 So. Meridian, 4th Floor.
