Forest Hill Cemetery is a place of deep history and honor. As one of the oldest National Cemeteries in Wisconsin, it serves as the final resting place for more than 4,000 veterans who answered the call to serve our nation.

This sacred ground is part of Wreaths Across America because it embodies the mission to Remember, Honor, and Teach. Each December, volunteers gather here to lay wreaths on the graves of our country’s heroes, ensuring that their names are spoken aloud and their sacrifices are never forgotten.

By participating at Forest Hill Cemetery, we not only pay tribute to generations of veterans but also help teach future generations the value of freedom and the importance of remembrance.
