Gethsemane Cemetery is proud to announce we are participating in Wreaths Across America this year

Wreaths Across America helps to coordinate wreath laying ceremonies at cemeteries across the United States, providing almost 3 million wreaths last year.

Cemeteries only receive the number of wreaths that are sponsored, so in order to ensure all our veterans receive a wreath this year, we need your help to reach our goal of 5000 wreaths.

Wreath Sponsorship for 2024 has closed. Thank you all for your support this year.
