There’s nothing more appropriate than seeing the Stars and Stripes decorating graves during the Memorial, Independence, and Veterans Day Holidays. Flags should be kept to a maximum of 12” X 18”, and are available in our office, free of charge, for everyone who would like to place them at a memorial during this time. Flags are subject to removal by the Cemetery within ten (10) days of the Holiday. Small red, white and blue floral arrangements are available from Elmwood for $10.
