The Crossing Memorial was dedicated on August 26, 2007. After the Kevin Vaughn's series, "The Crossing" ran in the Rocky Mountain News and Greeley Tribune, more people were aware of the tragedy. Tim knew it was a good time to make his dream a reality. He was able to raise $10,000 over three years. One donation came from Germany. The land for the memorial was donated by the land-owner, Lonnie Bunting. Norman's Memorials made the granite memorial that lists each of the victims' names. |
