In honor of the veterans that have died in Arizona, the national organization Wreaths Across America stopped in the Valley to remember the fallen.
On Saturday morning, Wreaths Across America visited the Mountain View Cemetery in Mesa to lay down wreaths on the graves of veterans.
The names of each and every veteran who had a wreath laid on their graves were said aloud as well. This is the first year that the remembrance ceremony was held in the East Valley.
Organized by the Pinal County Veterans Memorial Foundation, approximately 3,100 wreaths were received through donations,
The Sherwin-Williams Paint Store also donated a driver and a truck to deliver all of the wreaths throughout the Phoenix area.
