History
Report
G. H. Herrmann Funeral Homes was founded by George Harry Herrmann in 1926 and served a small neighborhood community on the south side of Indianapolis, Indiana. Known for his personal touch, George expanded the business in 1928 from its tiny storefront beginning to a large Victorian home just a stones throw away from the original location.
911 Memorial
Report
Not only does Freedom Plaza at G.H. Herrmann Funeral Homes The Gardens at Olive Branch boast a steel beam from World Trade Center 1, it also features leftover limestone from rebuilding the Pentagon and constructing the 9-11 Memorial in New York City and soil from the crash site of Flight 93.
The beam is supported by brick columns that contain cremation niches and a pentagon-shaped planter -- which brims with knockout rosebushes -- filled with 8 yards of dirt hauled in from Shanksville, Pa.There's also the eternal flame, with its limestone base crafted by Brian Swersky, who built an identical flame at John F. Kennedy's gravesite at Arlington National Cemetery.
