Help the Downey Cemetery remember and honor our local heroes by sponsoring a wreath to be placed on a veteran's grave this holiday season.

Join us in supporting Wreaths Across America as we remember our fallen heroes, honor those who serve, and teach future generations the value of freedom and sacrifice. Every wreath placed is a promise that our veterans will never be forgotten.

Wreaths are $17 and can be sponsored by scanning the QR code or by visiting www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/CA0777

For more information, contact the Parks and Recreation Department at 562-904-7238.
