Floral Haven Cemetery Raises "Avenue Of The Flags"

Posted: Updated:
Broken Arrow -

 

Floral Haven Cemetery is honoring our veterans this Memorial Day.

Monday was the raising of the flags on the Avenue of the Flags tribute to fallen soldiers.

Families dedicate their fallen soldiers' flag to fly over Floral Haven for the weekend.

The tradition started in 1972 when a widow brought in her husband's flag.

Now, almost 3000 flags will fly to remember the fallen.
