O'Fallon's Path of Heroes honors residents who have made the ultimate sacrifice
The Path of Heroes is a 7.8-mile route through the heart of O'Fallon that passes several City facilities, like the Veterans Memorial Walk, CarShield Field and City Hall. Along the Path of Heroes, families may apply to have one of their family members honored on memorial signs listing the name and rank of those who have fallen.
There is no cost to families to have their loved ones honored along the Path of Heroes. To participate, families must fill out the Path of Heroes Application Form (PDF). Please review the rules and policies governing this program (PDF) before submitting your application. For a map of the Path of Heroes, please click here (PDF).
For more information or to submit your application, please contact Deputy City Administrator Tom Drabelle at 636-379-5508 or tdrabelle@ofallonmo.gov.
The Veterans Commission advises the Mayor, City Council, and City Administrator on matters concerning Veterans’ affairs, as well as the preservation and upkeep of the City’s war memorials, including the Veterans Memorial Walk.
The commission also oversees planning for ceremonies, holidays and events honoring veterans and interacts with local Veterans’ organizations. Please email Veterans Commission questions or comments to the recording secretary Conan Stott at cstott@ofallonmo.gov, or call 636-379-5550.
