Wreaths Across America ceremony Dec. 16

| 15 Nov 2023 | 01:26

    West Milford Military Moms are planning a Wreaths Across America ceremony at noon Saturday, Dec. 16.

    After the ceremony, they will lay remembrance wreaths on the graves of veterans in Cedar Heights Cemetery, St. Joseph’s Cemetery and the West Milford Presbyterian Church Cemetery.

    Residents are asked to sponsor remembrance wreaths, volunteer Dec. 16, and invite family and friends to attend the ceremony.

    So far, 175 wreaths have been sponsored, about a quarter of the goal.

    To sponsor one wreath costs $17. For information, go online to wreathsacrossamerica.org

    West Milford began participating in the Wreaths Across America program in 2018, but it was scaled down during the pandemic. This will be the first ceremony held since 2019.
