WAA Family Pass Holder Day Update

Thank you to all the family pass holders who joined us for Wreaths Across America Family Pass Holder Day. Unfortunately, due the tremendous turnout, we have no more wreaths to distribute today, and the event is concluding early. We deeply appreciate your participation on this meaningful day and sincerely apologize to those unable to participate.  The cemetery remains open for you to visit your loved ones. We also invite you to join us next Saturday, Dec. 13 for our public Wreaths Across America Day.
