Memorial Day is a big day for Crown Hill — a celebration of patriotism, pride, and freedom. A Hoosier fixture for more than 150 years, it is the longest-running Memorial Day ceremony in Indiana. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, we can’t share this amazing event in person again this year, so we have produced a short patriotic video to celebrate and honor those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Featuring David Rieck, President of Crown Hill Cemetery and Heritage Foundation, and Major Christopher Barnthouse, U.S. Army (Ret.), this video will transport viewers to the past and invite them to reflect on the present as we honor the thousands of veterans resting at Crown Hill Cemetery.
