The Archdiocese of Chicago through Catholic Cemeteries participated in the national program, “Serving God and Country: A Memorial Day Salute to Our Heroes.” The annual Memorial Day remembrance was established by the Catholic Cemetery Conference to honor men and women of the armed forces who died while serving their country, as well as active military and veterans. During the mass, a special blessing was offered to veterans. The St. Cyprian choir has sung at St. Joseph Cemetery in River Grove for many years. The tradition continued this year with Fr. Paul celebrating the Mass and the choir singing and providing the music.
