The Wreath Laying for President James A. Garfield

Friday, November 10, 2023 from 11:00am - 12:00pm

The Wreath Laying for President James A. Garfield

Join us as we commemorate President James A. Garfield’s birthday and Veterans Day with a patriotic wreath laying. Special guests from the military, Garfield family, and others will honor the valor of those who have served our nation during this special ceremony. *This year's ceremony will take place in the Community Mausoleum.

Lake View Cemetery has the great fortune of commemorating President Garfield’s birthday by not only honoring Garfield, but all those who have served. President Garfield served as a Union Army Major General during the Civil War before being elected to office and happens to have a November birthday! It is tradition for the current President of the United States to send a high-ranking member of the military to place a birthday wreath at the resting places of former Presidents. Flags will be available for placement at the graves of your loved ones who served.
