The peace garden is located near the memorial to the men of the USS Snook, a submarine that was lost with all hands during WW II. In the center of the garden is the Beacon of Peace and Hope sculpture. The plaque near the entrance to the garden reads:
THE
PEACE GARDEN
--------------------
Make peace is the soldier's cry
to the angry world outside.
The shells that "purge" the cities and villages
will not silence their voices.
No blame is to be placed. No shame is to be lived
Please no more screams.
