Memorial Day Clean Up at Orem City Cemetery





Serve Ur Village spent the morning of May 23rd at Orem City Cemetery doing some landscape cleanup to help them prepare for their Memorial Day service, the next Monday morning.  We edged flower beds, cleared away leaves and weeds between rocks, swept and beautified the area.  
This cemetery has a special place in my heart. It was a privilege to bring a few friends, family and all over great volunteers, young and old, to lend a hand in serving the village.
Thank you volunteers! Without you, it would just be me, and well....that would be boring and very slow work.

*Memorial Day is an American federal holiday observed annually on the last Monday of May.  Memorial Day is a day of remembering the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. - Wikipedia
It is a holiday for many who take time to remember special loved ones.
