Veterans Memorial Way at St. Ann's Cemetery

Veterans Memorial Way at St. Ann's Cemetery is almost complete! This permanent site is dedicated to veterans who have selflessly served our country. The memorial consists of a brick walkway and majestic angel statue, which are surrounded by the American flag, as well as the flags of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marines.

Donors may purchase a memorial brick to honor family and friends who have served. Each paver that is purchased will be engraved with a veteran’s name and information regarding their service.

Pavers may honor veterans who are living or deceased. If you are purchasing a brick in honor of a deceased veteran, it is not required that they are buried at St. Ann’s Cemetery. This memorial is not only for St. Ann's parish veterans, but for anyone who wishes to commemorate a veteran on sacred ground.
