Oh yes it's a wonderful tradition he started. I think they have this going on in all Veterans Cemeteries across America. You can contribute to the Wreaths Across America group and help purchase wreaths to be placed on our veterans graves.

What a beautiful way to honor these men and women. A very moving picture. I'm having my 100 follower giveaway. It's a vintage handmade art journal, come by and put your name in. Merry Christmas, Cindy
