Oklahoma City National Memorial


This was such a tragic event. I thought this Memorial was one of the best I have seen, however. There is the Survivor Walls of the Murrah Building, the Survivor Tree (American Elm) which remained standing after the blast, Field of 168 Empty Chairs that symbolize a life lost, and a Reflecting Pool that helps soothe the wounds with a calming effect.
