Gloucester City will unveil its new Veterans Memorial Saturday, November 10, at 10 a.m. at the intersection of Broadway and Monmouth Street.  

It will honor all the fallen vets from Gloucester City, including U.S. Marine Corporal Marc T. Ryan.  

\”All Gloucester City residents, friends and family are invited,\” said members of the Ryan family and of the Cpl. Marc T. Ryan Memorial Committee.  

The new memorial, honoring all Gloucester City veterans, will be unveiled to the public with a ceremony and guest speakers promptly at 10 a.m.  

The Memorial Committee and the Ryan family thank everyone in advance of the unveiling for their support and their generous donations to the Corporal Marc T. Ryan Memorial Statue Fund.  

\”Without your support this beautiful tribute would not be possible. Please come out and support our living veterans and fallen servicemen and women of Gloucester City and our nation in observance of Veteran\’s Day,\” they said.  

\”All those who knew and loved Marc know he would not want this tribute to be just about him. He fought side by side with his fellow marines and soldiers, therefore, he would want to be honored next to them.\”  

All citizens of Gloucester City and the surrounding area are encouraged to attend the tribute honoring all veterans, they added.
