Many of you have reached out to see how we can support the veterans in the area and give back to those that no longer can.
Please check out www.wreathsacrossamerica.org
If you want to volunteer your time with Mr. George K and others, join us at 1000 sharp on Saturday, 17 DEC 2016, at the Roselawn Cemetery in Decatur, AL. The ceremony won’t be long, at which point everyone in attendance will help place wreaths on marked Veterans grave sites (1300+). We should be completed NLT noon. Comfortable casual dress in blue jeans is fine. There will be various community and state VIPs to include Congressman Mo Brooks as well as several veterans organizations present to help.
The ceremony will be at the Mausoleum located back in the actual cemetery. It is OK to drive there.
We’ll probably head over to George’s VFW post after the ceremony for a cold one as it is only about 10 minutes from the cemetery.
It’s a civilian cemetery and we’ve been marking the Veterans grave sites by wooden stakes that we’ll then lean the wreaths against after the ceremony.
Appreciate any help that we can get. Families, to include children, are welcome to attend.
This is about honoring Veterans and remembering those Veterans who can’t be home for the Holidays.
Additionally we want to extend this mission to our NSA family, and care for any Night Stalkers grave site in our area. Please PM, email or call me about this follow on mission.
