Hankiot on the Jewish War Veterans Headstones
A wonderful history making day as the National Program Wreaths Across America invited the Jewish community and the local chapter of Freedom Riders who provide escort for veteran funerals to the cemetery, to lay Hankiot on the Jewish War Veterans Headstones.
The local representative Marylee Shrider said that last year when they placed the Christmas wreaths on the headstones they thought the Jewish headstones seemed 'lonely'. This is because the Jewish headstones have a plague stating that due to Jewish faith please do not place wreaths on headstone.
So, they worked on a plan and the Hanokiot idea came to fruition.
We are very grateful to Marylee and the local chapter of Wreaths Across America for acknowledging our Jewish veterans and their service. May their memory always be for a blessing.
Hag Samach and Happy Hanukkah
