The United States of America will continue to remember that many who toiled here found their final rest while engaged in the building of this dam. They died to make the desert bloom. The United States of America will continue to remember the services of all who labored to clothe with substance the plans of those who first visioned the building of this dam.

The Hoover Dam construction crew's mascot was found as a puppy by workers at the construction camp. This dog traveled to and from the damsite with them and spent his days visiting the many work areas. On February 21, 1941, the life of this devoted animal came to an end when a truck under which he was sleeping rolled over him. The grave below was completed by workers later that same day.
