Gold Star Veterans at Union Cemetery

 

PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION — PLEASE CHECK BACK AS CONTENT WILL BE ADDED

 

Among the thousands of burials at Union Cemetery, there are 275 veterans who served our country.  20 of these veterans died while in service and are considered Gold Star Veterans.

The goal of this page is to record the life and death of these veterans who died in service–making them real people and not just a name on a tombstone.

The biographies have been researched and written by Crystal Lake resident, Nathalie Holberg.  If anyone has additional information, photos, etc. on the veterans, please contact the Society at: info@cl-hs.org
