Wreaths Across America brought people together from across the country to remember those who've committed their lives to service. It was no different in Northern Nevada today.
Wreaths seemed to sprout from the ground, as the sun tried to find its way between clouds, 7600 of them gently lay on top of graves by hundreds attending the ceremony in Fernley.
All the visitors come as no surprise buried here are fallen heroes and their families.
In every grave, a different story and a different way to remember.
Richard Bento is also a veteran, he can't name every single one of the friends he came to visit and all the stories they shared, but it felt like he could.
“A lot of them here gave their last, their most, some gave some, some gave all, and that’s what we are here honoring,” says Richard Bento, veteran.
This ceremony is for them, and for all those who served it's a reminder they will always be remembered.
