Honoring Our Fallen Heroes: A Memorial Day Wreath Laying Ceremony

Join the Masonic Grand Lodge of Rhode Island at the Masonic Veterans Memorial This Memorial Day

As Memorial Day approaches, a time for solemn remembrance and profound gratitude, Most Worshipful Grand Master Rick Baccus invites Freemasons, their families and friends to join him for the annual Memorial Day Wreath Laying Ceremony.

The ceremony will take place at the Masonic Veterans Memorial, located at the Rhode Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Exeter, RI, on Monday, May 26, 2025, at 9:00 am.

This ceremony offers a meaningful opportunity for us to come together as a fraternity and as a community to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. Their valor and dedication ensure the freedoms we cherish, and it is our solemn duty to remember their contributions.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Overseas Lodge No. 40 for graciously providing the Color Guard for this occasion, adding to the dignity and respect of the proceedings.

Dress is jacket and tie or uniform with apron and jewels for Freemasons.

We encourage all who are able to attend to join us in this act of remembrance. Let us gather to pay our respects and reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day. Your presence will be a testament to our enduring commitment to honoring our veterans and their selfless service.

We look forward to seeing you there as we collectively honor our fallen heroes
