A special Thank You to everyone who helped Heroes & Horses complete our mission to remember every Veteran laid to rest at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Mackeyville, PA.
This mission brought a heartfelt ceremony that allowed us to honor these Veterans and their families. With this mission, we could teach the next generation the value of freedom. We honored 910 deserving Veterans on December 14, 2024, thanks to all the amazing donors and supporters.
On this day, across our country, at more than 4,600 participating locations, including Cedar Hill Cemetery, millions of Americans gathered safely as one nation to Remember, Honor, and Teach.
Veteran’s wreaths were presented at each gravesite in memory of those who served and are serving in the United States Army, United States Marine Corps, United States Navy, United States Air Force, United States Space Force, United States Coast Guard, United States Merchant Marines along with a Veteran’s wreath in honor of the 93,129 United States Servicemen & Servicewomen from all branches of the service whose last known status was either Prisoners of War or Missing in Action. These individuals have never returned to their families and homes. We shall not forget you.
Due to the success of the Wreaths Across America 2024 project, Heroes & Horses has decided to support the Wreaths Across America 2025 at Cedar Hill Cemetery.
From now until January 17, 2025, wreath purchases are $17.00 each, and for each wreath purchased, we receive one additional wreath. For every two wreaths purchased ($34.00), we receive three additional wreaths.
After January 17, 2025, purchases will go back to Buy 2 ($34.00) get 1 free rate. We hope everyone wishing to make this Wreaths Across America project a success will consider purchasing a wreath during this time.
Purchases can be made by accessing the website: https://wreathsacrossamerica.org/PA0864 or mailing a check or money order to Heroes & Horses, PO Box 110; Woolrich, PA 17779.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Vickie Hancock, Director of Heroes & Horses, at 570-660-6881 or Ella Yothers, Heroes & Horses Volunteer, at 570-295-9330.
The 2025 laying of Remembrance wreaths on the Cedar Hill Cemetery Veteran sites of our country’s fallen heroes will be on Saturday, December 13, 2025, at 10:00 a.m.
We can’t do this without the support of our community and the family and friends of those Veterans. Though these Veterans are no longer with us, they will forever be in our hearts, and a showing of our appreciation through this Mission and the Wreaths Across America 2025 Project does that.
