The Gwinnett's Fallen Heroes Memorial pays tribute to all Gwinnett residents who died in the line of duty in military or public safety service. The memorial is located on the grounds of the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center in Lawrenceville.

Buford residents, Ron and Carolyn Buice, who lost three dear friends in Vietnam, conceived the memorial and formed a non-profit organization to build it. Ten years later in 2003, it was built with funds from private donations and Gwinnett County government.

The memorial honors about 700 individuals and is organized by categories of service. Their names are in random order, without rank, and are carved on 13 black granite markers, which are nine feet tall and weigh almost four tons each. The central pedestal features a Gwinnett firefighter's bronze sculpture of an eagle carrying a rose.
