A familiar tradition rooted in honor and reflection is taking on added meaning in the year ahead.
Wreaths Across America has announced its 2026 theme, Remember Me, marking 250 years of honoring American heroes.
Locally, Benbrook Cemetery’s participation continues a mission that goes beyond placing wreaths. It is about pausing long enough to recognize the lives, service, and sacrifice behind each name.
The theme invites the community to move remembrance from a moment into a mindset. Remembering veterans is not only about history, but about choosing to carry their stories forward through gratitude, respect, and action. For Benbrook families, it is another opportunity to involve younger generations in understanding why remembrance matters.
Residents who want to learn more, sponsor a wreath, or support the local effort can visit https://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/TX1453P and be part of a nationwide movement that ensures service and sacrifice are never forgotten.
