Memorial Park was founded in 1924 in honor of the 1,200 Florida men who lost their lives in the service during World War I. The Memorial Park Association, established in 1986 solely for the purpose of the restoration and preservation of Memorial Park, has been working for eight years raising funds and working with sculptor Diane La Fond Insetta for the past six years to present the two bronze eagles.
