Wreaths Across America...Remembering

It's was beautiful December morning at the Great Lakes National Cemetery in Holly, Michigan.

After running three miles earlier this morning, I joined hundreds of others at 11 am in Holly to place wreaths on the graves of veterans in the local National Cemetary. Then at 12 Noon, a memorial service was held with a wreath presented for each branch of the service.

Non-profits sell wreaths for Wreaths Across America, whose goal is to put a wreath on every veteran's grave. Unfortunately, only a portion of the graves at GLNC received wreaths this year so hopefully next year more donations will provide wreaths for all the graves.
