Annual Memorial Day Meet and Greet, Sunday, May 26 and Monday, May 27—Friends of Jacksonville Historic Cemetery volunteers will be on-site both days from 11:00am-3:00pm to assist families and friends with locating gravesites of loved ones. They will also answer questions about the cemetery and the FOJHC organization. In honor of our fallen heroes, flags will be placed on their gravesites. As May is also National Historic Preservation Month, FOJHC will be featuring some of their more recent cemetery restoration and preservation projects along with plans for their biggest project to date, the restoration of the Jacob Ish Block.
