Welcome to the Coye & Wilder Cemeteries - South Bristol's Wreaths Across America Page. There are at least 35 known veteran graves at two of South Bristol's oldest cemeteries: 29 at the Coye Cemetery (on SR 21) and another six at the Wilder Cemetery (SR 64). Our goal this year is to place a holiday wreath at each of these gravesites.
On December 14, 2024 at 12:00 pm (Wreath Placement Following Ceremony at Bristol Center Cemetery), Wreaths Across America will be at Coye & Wilder Cemeteries - South Bristol to Remember and Honor our veterans through the laying of Remembrance wreaths on the graves of our country's fallen heroes and the act of saying the name of each and every veteran aloud.
Please Note: The commemoration ceremony will be held at Bristol Center Cemetery at 12:00 Noon, with wreath placements by volunteers to follow at both Coye and Wilder Cemeteries.
