ChristmasWreaths
09 DECEMBER 2011 - PHOENIX, AZ: ROBERT BELLMAN lays a Christmas wreath on a veteran's grave in Phoenix Saturday. Bellman and his wife bought 15 years wreaths this year for graves. They've been participating in the wreath laying ceremony for years. Several hundred volunteers and veterans gathered at the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona in Phoenix Saturday to lay Christmas wreaths on headstones, a tradition started by Wreaths Across America. Wreaths Across America is a nonprofit organization founded to continue and expand the annual wreath laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery begun by Maine businessman, Morrill Worcester, in 1992.
