Welcome to the Wayne County Area Cemeteries's Wreaths Across America Page.
On December 14, 2024, Wreaths Across America will be at Wayne County Area Cemeteries 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.
We will serve as a pickup location for 24 different Wayne County Area Cemeteries. Please sponsor your wreath(s) through, and support, the Wooster-Wayne Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution by going to our chapter's Wreaths Across America page by copying and pasting this URL into your browser: www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/OH0123P. For wreaths you want to pick up, or for placement on Revolutionary War Patriots graves, you will choose Wayne County Area Cemeteries from the 'Location to Support' drop-down menu.
Our goal is to honor as many Revolutionary War Patriots as possible. We look forward to having every veteran in the Wayne County area remembered with a Remembrance wreath. For questions, special requests, and to make pickup arrangements, contact Jolene at 330-201-1678 or jolene.dyer@gmail.com
We would like to keep a record of how many Revolutionary War Patriots are being honored with a remembrance wreath this year. Following your wreath sponsorship order, please email Jolene at jolene.dyer@gmail.com and indicate if your order was or was not for a Revolutionary War Patriot to ensure as many as possible are honored.
Thank you so much for supporting Wayne County Area Cemeteries and Wreaths Across America!
