"The story is right there," Caldor Fire evacuee Randall Hager said. "The story of all the heroics is right there."
For many who lived through it, the memories remain vivid.
The new monument was unveiled outside Fire Station 17 in Pollock Pines.
Four bronze panels depict scenes from the fire, which burned for 69 days.
Residents who fled the flames gathered around the monument Saturday, sharing memories and gratitude for those who helped protect their community.
"This had a purpose and also fulfilled, for me, a desire that I had to say thank you," Patterson added. "You can't say thank you enough to all the people that fought this fire."
"We all have our memories. They will fade over time," Hager said. "This is a way for people to know and to understand what it's like to go through a community emergency."
Patterson said she hopes a sign can eventually be added along Pony Express Trail, encouraging people passing through Pollock Pines to stop and visit the monument.
