Ce monument commémoratif a été érigé par la ville de Grand Falls en 1921 et 1922 grâce à des dons et à l’entreprise locale de fabrication de papier. Il a été dévoilé le 25 juillet 1922. Après la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, on y a installé une plaque de bronze où l’on peut lire le nom de ceux qui ont donné leur vie pendant les deux guerres mondiales. En 1966, le nom des personnes décédées à la guerre de Corée a été ajouté.

Le texte de l’inscription figure dans la section anglaise.
