AHG FAMILY REMEMBERS FALLEN HEROES ON MEMORIAL DAY Memorial Day is a holiday devoted to honoring America’s heroes. American Heritage Girls across the country took part in important ceremonies, service projects, and outreach programs recognizing the ultimate sacrifice made by brave men and women serving in the United States Armed Forces. Typical Memorial Day Parades were cancelled this year, but AHG girls like Grace, a Pioneer in FL1231, joined their families to honor the fallen. Pictured here with her mom Teri, Troop Coordinator, and her dad Greg, Outdoor Coordinator, Grace and her family placed flags on veteran headstones this year. “As American Heritage Girls and volunteers, we vow to honor our country and serve in our community. Our hearts go out to the family and friends that have lost loved ones who have served our great nation,” said Teri.
