Welcome to the Glendale National Cemetery's Wreaths Across America Page. 

On December 13, 2025 at 09:00 am (Wreath Placement Immediately Following Ceremony), Wreaths Across America will be at Glendale National Cemetery to Remember and Honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud.

Please help our location lay wreaths at as many graves as possible by clicking the red "Sponsor" button. Or, if you would like to volunteer to participate in the wreath laying ceremony, please click the “Volunteer” button next to the cemetery name below, and don't forget to click the "Invite" button to invite your friends and family to join you. 

“A person dies twice: once when they take their final breath, and later, the last time their name is spoken.” Though the origins of the quote are varied, Wreaths Across America has taken it to heart. “When we lay wreaths on veterans' graves, we say their names.” (WAA quote Dec. 2017)

Thank you so much for supporting Glendale National Cemetery and Wreaths Across America!

Directions to Cemetery

Navigation systems do an adequate job finding the cemetery. When you arrive, please follow the people and signs to the site of the ceremony itself.  


Parking Instructions

Parking at the cemetery is very limited and you will likely have to park alongside the cemetery on the road. This is a rural location so there is plenty of room to do so. Parking may also be found in the church just past the cemetery.
