In Memoriam: Earl R. Melville



In front of the Chippewa Falls Public Library a flagpole stands, and there is a plaque affixed to its base honoring the veterans of the Chippewa Valley.

That plaque was made by Mr. Earl R. Melville, a native and resident of the Chippewa Falls area who just recently passed away.

Mr. Melville's plaques can be found on other landmarks around the city, including the City Hall building and the cannon carriages in Irvine Park, but it is for his lasting contribution to the library that we remember him.
