Wreaths Across America 2023
REMEMBER the Fallen. . . HONOR those who Serve. . . TEACH our children the value of Freedom That is the Mission of Wreaths Across America
Theme 2023 is “Serve and Succeed”
This 2023 over 4000 locations across the USA and abroad will be holding this dedicated annual ceremony for Wreaths Across America. On Saturday, December 16, 2023 at 12:00p.m., Gate of Heaven Cemetery will be one of those locations participating. This special ceremony at our location will be in the veterans’ garden, section 28, to remember and honor our veterans through the laying of remembrance wreaths donated by those who order from WAA for this location.
If any wreaths are to be laid at veterans’ gravesites, they are all from donations of those who go to the Wreaths Across America website and place their orders to donate for the Gate of Heaven Cemetery Cincinnati participating “location.” If you would like to donate one wreath, or multi wreaths, for veterans interred at Gate of Heaven, go to www.wreathsacrossamerica.org.
