Communities that remember.

Drive about 3 miles out  of Blacksburg on the Glade Road and find an amazing  collection of memorials to  military veterans and coal miners from the Sunnyside and Tom's Creek communities.  Some gave their lives but all listed served honorably.


For those who served in World War I, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam...
...and a unique and an appropriate memorial to those who served at a very tense time called the Cold War.

In addition to the military monuments are memorials to those who worked and died in the coal mines.



Remembering is a part of knowing who we are.
