More than 100-wreaths were put in place on fallen the headstones of fallen soldiers, a movement that began in 1992 by a business man in Maine who had a surplus of Christmas wreaths.
Mary Blogett started the movement in Omaha after reading a magazine article. Omaha was the first city in Nebraska to participate in Wreaths Across America.
