Cemetery Avenue of U. S. Flags

The Catholic Cemetery Association has a program of special recognition of Veterans who have served our country in military service. A 3'x5' nylon American Flag is displayed on a 10' pole along the roadways of St. Joseph's, St. Mary's, and Resurrection Cemetries five times during the year. The flags are displayed on the days mentioned above.

To participate in this program, we are asking the families of Veterans to make a contribution of $140.00. We will place the name of the Veteran on a silver aluminun plaque with black engraving which will be at the foot of one of the flag poles. The plaque will read: "This American Flag is dedicated in memory of (Veteran's Name) who served our Country in (branch of service) from (years of service).

To make a flag contribution, please contact the office at 309-691-5889.
