Join us as we honor the veterans buried at the Old City Cemetery. Over 450 identified veterans representing wars from the Indian Wars, World War I & II and the Persian Gulf War are buried in the Old City Cemetery. Those buried also represent both Union and Confederate soldiers and several from the Mexican Revolution. A U.S. flag will be placed on each identified veterans' grave. If you would like to volunteer by placing flags on veteran graves, please call David Parsons at (956) 541-5560. Special thanks to Allison & Dennis Acosta and family for overseeing this honor.
