Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens and Chapel Hill-Butler Funeral Home, in partnership with American Legion Post 188, will hold their annual Memorial Day Service of Remembrance at 11:30 a.m. on Monday, May 27 near the flagpole outside the funeral home, 701 North 94th Street in Kansas City. The event is free and open to the public. Call 913-334-3366 for more information.
The service will bring together veterans, patriots and citizens to honor those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The event will include a 32-inch television giveaway and will feature the popular “Avenue of Flags” which lines many of the roadways inside the memorial park. The Avenue of Flags is created by volunteers with the American Legion, which also coordinates the placement of flags on the gravesites of veterans buried at Chapel Hill. Throughout the weekend, Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens General Manager Joel Brinkley will play Taps.
