The Village of Lyons and Lyons Township joined regional and local officials to dedicate the new Firefighter Memorial on Nov. 28, 2021.

A red-brick memorial topped with a firefighter’s helmet and sitting outside the fire station, 4043 Joliet Ave., was dedicated on Nov. 28. About 200 attended.

Behind the memorial stands a new 35-foot flagpole topped with a 6-by-10-foot American flag.

Liberty Art Works, Alt Construction, Sign Contractors, Print The Planet and the Advertising Flag Company worked on the project.
