Puritan Lawn Memorial Park Holds 18th Annual Remembrance Service

On Saturday, September 17th, 2016, Puritan Lawn Memorial Park in Peabody, MA, held its annual Remembrance Service at the Pierce Boulevard Flag Circle. This nondenominational service gives family and friends the opportunity to reflect and share memories of their departed loved ones from the last year.

Pastor Coots has been an active participant in the Puritan Lawn services for many years. Select readings were recited by members of the Puritan Lawn community and attendees were invited to place a flower in a vase in memory of their loved ones.
