Memorial Garden
About the Memorial Garden
The Ralph J. Bunche Memorial Garden was created as a space for reflection, remembrance, and community pride. Located within Ralph J. Bunche Commemorative Park, the garden features memorial markers honoring individuals whose lives, families, and contributions are part of Weldon’s story.
Each marker includes a QR code that connects visitors to additional information about the individual being honored — allowing their stories to live on and be shared for generations.
Create a Memorial for a Loved One
Honor a loved one, educator, community leader, or friend with a lasting memorial at the Ralph J. Bunche Historical Park. Memorial gifts help enhance the park while preserving the stories of those who made a meaningful impact on the school and the Weldon community.
We are mindful of the importance of installing high-quality items that will withstand inclement weather, be resistant to theft and damage, and last for many years. Each item must be insured and/or its replacement planned. Maintenance is an on-going responsibility of Weldon In Action. These functions, added to the price of the items, and the shipping, assembly, and installation determine the prices that are listed above.
Honoring Weldon’s Legacy
The Memorial Garden is part of Weldon In Action’s commitment to preserving local history and honoring the people who helped shape our community. Through storytelling, oral histories, and memorial markers, we aim to ensure these stories remain part of Weldon’s living history. Community members can honor loved ones or recognize individuals who have made an impact on Weldon by dedicating a memorial marker in the garden.
