Wreaths Across America

From Pastor Erick: The Left picture, courtesy of Holly Torrant, shows me leading the opening prayer with the Honor Guard behind me. The other pic (I took) shows the wreath placed on Mr. Alexson’s gravesite. Organized in Norfolk by Grant Mudge and the Norfolk Lions Club, Wreaths Across America began in Maine in 1992 and became a nationwide event in 2007. The timing at noon coincides with the same ceremony held annually in Arlington National Cemetery. The mission of Wreaths Across America is to: Remember the fallen. Honor those who serve. Teach the next generation the value of freedom
