Remembrance Day

On this day the current citizens of Peninsula will remember and honor the physicians and nurses who have lived in the village and Cuyahoga Valley. Important to the development of any community was the presence of Physicians to care for the sick and injured. Peninsula was right next door to Western Reserve Medical College, where most of our early physicians studied. There will be markers outside of homes where doctors lived. Early nurses in the village were mothers, daughters and sisters who nursed their family members and friends. These along with civil war nurses will be celebrated.
