Retirement of Wreaths at Greenville Union Cemetery


Despite the frigid weather, the retirement of approx. 300 Wreaths Across America wreaths at Greenville Union Cemetery took place on Jan. 21. Fort GreeneVille Chapter DAR would like to thank the community and all the donors for their support in this patriotic event.

On Saturday, December 14, 2019 at 12:00 PM, Wreaths Across America will be at Greenville Union Cemetery to Remember and Honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud.

The chapter is now taking donations for the Wreaths Across America Program that will take place at Greenville Union Cemetery on December 14, 2019. More information can be found at https://www.facebook.com/fortgreenevilledar/.

To donate a wreath go to https://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/pages/search?searchType=group and sponsor a wreath there. (Type in FORT GREENEVILLE DAR or OH0151P, choose Greenville Union Cemetery.) If you would like to sponsor a wreath for a specific veteran, please contact Fort GreeneVille Daughters of the American Revolution on Facebook, any Fort GreeneVille member or email FtGVille@gmail.com

National Wreaths Across America Day is a free event and open to all people. For more information on Wreaths Across America, visit www.wreathsacrossamerica.org.
