Crime Victims Memorial Wall Nears Completion in Endicott

Work is being completed on a long-awaited permanent crime victims memorial in Broome County.

The wall has been constructed at Roundtop Picnic Area in Endicott. It is the Eagle Scout service project of Schyler Savage. His mother, Tess Savage of Binghamton, was killed in a domestic violence incident in the village of Windsor in April 2023.

In announcing the project, Schyler Savage said the memorial "will become a solemn place for remembrance and reflection for the many people, including my mother, who lost their lives as a victim of crime."

Savage helped raise money and solicit community donations for the wall. Broome County is covering most of the cost of the project, which has been estimated at $150,000.

The project has taken longer to complete than originally anticipated. When the formal groundbreaking event was held in September 2024, work on the project was expected to be finished by the following April.

Several dozen names of men, women and children who have died as a result of violence have been engraved on the memorial wall. More names will be added in coming months.

A formal unveiling and community gathering is scheduled to be held at the Crime Victims Memorial Wall on June 3 at 11 a.m.
