A huge thank you to Home Depot for their generous donation and incredible support in helping us lay wreaths at our local cemetery. Your commitment to our community and our veterans means more than words can express. Without your help, we simply wouldn’t be able to do what we’ve done.

We also want to express our sincere gratitude to American Legion Post 491 for including us in their tradition this year and for working with Home Depot to ensure we had the wreaths needed. Your partnership truly made this possible.

To our American Legion Post 1231, we want to give a heartfelt thank you to our incredible volunteers — the Legionnaires, Sons of the American Legion, Riders, and Auxiliary — who came out to help lay the wreaths with honor and respect. Your dedication and support mean everything to us and ensure our veterans are never forgotten.

Thank you all for helping keep this meaningful tradition alive. 🇺🇸💙🎄
