3rd Annual "Honoring their Memory" Ceremony

GAR Cemetery, Snohomish, Washington

The 3rd Annual "Honoring Their Memory" Ceremony was held on April 7, 2001 at the Snohomish, WA GAR Cemetery. The event was co-hosted by Company C, 4th United States Regular Infantry (WCWA) and SUVCW Governor Isaac Stevens Camp #1. Held on the weekend closest to April 9th, the ceremony depicts the surrender of Confederate forces that essentially ended the bloodiest chapter in American history. Below is a recap of the day's events.
