DACULA, Ga. — Dacula has one of the most special Memorial Day observances around metro Atlanta.
Each year, they carry signs displaying the names and pictures of over 300 fallen heroes. This act serves as a heartfelt gesture to remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
This year they were seeking out volunteers to help carry the signs, and now on Monday they're set to go ahead with their annual Memorial Day Parade.
The service is conducted in collaboration with Fallen Heroes of Georgia. According to the parade website, the group is the parade grand marshal.
The 2023 parade theme is: "Resting as Heroes."
"The Memorial Day parade in Dacula is a solemn event intended to honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we can enjoy the freedom we have today," the parade website notes.
