This will be the first time in a decade that Darrell Rivers has not delivered an address at the Orange County Cemetery District’s Memorial Day Commemoration so he recorded it instead. _________________________________________________ Memorial Day began after the Civil War as Decoration Day, a holiday commemorated by the Grand Army of the Republic, the fraternal organisation of Union Civil War veterans. Decoration Day was inspired by many acts of respect and patriotism surro...unding soldiers’ graves including notable cases with former slaves going out of their way to decorate and protect Union soldiers’ graves in the American South. General Logan’s General Order Number 11 was issued on the 5th of May 1868.

The cemetery is all dressed up for families to visit this weekend. Please remember there isn't a Memorial Day service and we will see you next year.
