Annual Wreaths Across America. Held in the chapel at Garden of Memories so no worries about the weather. Actual program and service last about an hour followed by the actual laying of the wreaths by family members and volunteers. Everyone welcome.
Approximately 2,000 plus Veterans in this cemetery alone. Invitations open to adding new area cemeteries.
Wreaths are $17.00 and can be sponsored on line 24/7 by going to: wreathsacrossamerica.org/TX0166P.
