🇺🇸 End-of-Year 2025 Special – Wreaths Across America Program

Garden of Memories is proud to announce their End-of-Year Program in support of Wreaths Across America, helping even more Veterans in Angelina County be remembered and honored this holiday season.

Now through November 28, when you sponsor two wreaths for Garden of Memories, you’ll also receive one wreath to place yourself at the gravesite of your Veteran loved one — whether they rest at Garden of Memories or in another cemetery within Angelina County.

🕘 Here’s how it works:

Sponsor your wreaths through Wreaths Across America (select Garden of Memories – Lufkin).

Bring your receipt to the Chapel between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m. before the ceremony.

You’ll receive one wreath for every two sponsored to place wherever your heart leads.

If you choose to sponsor additional wreaths, you can take the same number you’ve sponsored for Garden of Memories. It’s a true WIN-WIN — you’re helping honor local heroes while also remembering your own. 🌟

For more information, please contact Rita Redd at (936) 674-7347 or reach out to our office at (936) 639-4219.

Let’s come together to ensure no Veteran in Angelina County is ever forgotten. ❤️🤍💙

From the traditional potlucks in the Delta to jazz funerals in New Orleans, the South rarely lets anyone go quietly into the night. Funerals are for mourning the deceased and celebrating those loved ones during and after the processions. These Southern funeral traditions continue today and are beautiful examples of how to honor your loved ones.

Southern funerals are miracles when you think about it. They are actually just a step or two below a wedding—except that the reception lasts three or four days, you cry more, and you pull the whole thing together in less than a week.

Have you ever heard of a fantasy coffin? In Ghana, people like to be buried in containers that represent their lives. It's believed that if the deceased is properly honored, such actions secure spiritual favor for the family left behind. Caskets have been shaped like planes for pilots, fish for fishermen and even a Mercedes-Benz for a businessman.
