Rose to artist Ned Giberson who has surfaced
again to create a replica of the eagle which was at the Western Military
grounds in a garden near the front of the gate at what is now
Mississippi Valey Christian School. Plans are to have a 12-foot high
interpretive obelisk in place by Memorial. Also a rose to those working
on the Western Military project, raising the funds. Giberson is most
known for his sculpting of the Robert Wadlow statue on College Avenue in
Alton.
