On November 18, the Melzingah Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) held a Never Forget Garden Marker Dedication on the grounds of the Madam Brett Homestead.

VFW Post 666 Commander Harold Delamater and Marine Corps League Det 861 Adjutant Tony Pulliam were invited to participate in the ceremony.

The marker was received from the New York State DAR organization in honor of Denise VanBuren, President General and Melzingah Daughter. The marker is in recognition of the 100th Anniversary of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier; and is for all who visit the garden to express patriotism, with the noble purpose of remembering all whose lives were courageously given in service to the United States of America, both at home and abroad.

A permanent marker will be placed in the Spring of 2022.
