Annual Decoration Day

Decoration Day is a time honoured tradition where families visit the cemetery to pay respects to their loved ones by tidying up gravesites, cleaning cemetery memorials, and placing floral tributes. This annual observance has been honoured for decades at our cemetery but few can remember the true history behind this tradition.

Decoration Day, a precursor to Remembrance Day, was once a nationally recognized day in Canada that commemorated our war dead. On this day Canadians would gather at war memorials, visit the cemetery to clean up veteran’s gravesites, and leave floral tributes, wreaths and garlands.

 

The 2023 Wyoming Public Cemetery Decoration Day is scheduled for June 11th, 2023 beginning at 2:00 p.m.

The Service will take place at the Wyoming Public Cemetery, 450 Isabella Street, Wyoming. In the event of inclement weather, the service will be held at the Wyoming Legion, 493 Erie Street, Wyoming.
