Our Mission:
To Remember, Honor, & Teach about the service and sacrifices of our veterans, active military, and their families.
We will Never Forget.
We Achieved Our Goal for 2015.
By purchasing 1,047 wreaths we were able to place
a wreath on every gravesite of every veteran
in the town of South Windsor during the holiday season.
We look forward to achiving the same goal for 2016.

Why We Remember:
"To be killed in war is not the worst that can happen.
To be lost is not the worst that can happen...
to be forgotten is the worst."
