CUYAHOGA FALLS: Twelve men from Cuyahoga Falls who died in Vietnam will be memorialized on a bench to be placed at the Ohio Veterans Memorial Park in Clinton.

Organizers have raised $3,500 for the bench.

The fundraising drive was started in late May by Jayann Brooks and her sisters, Donna Orr and Chris Koopman of California, Lynn Lyell, Michele McQuillen and Brenda Konic of Cuyahoga Falls, and Mary Jo Goldman of Munroe Falls and brother Terry Morgan of Cuyahoga Falls.
