WCA is thankful for all the interest the Cemetery has received through this page. On Saturday, May 27th, the Board Members of the WCA placed 102 American Flags on the graves of Veterans buried at Whitmire Cemetery. We are thankful to them and their families for their service to our country. Please HONOR AND REMEMBER THEM THIS MEMORIAL DAY.

I am sure many of you have seen the new fence being placed in front of the cemetery. This has been completed with your wonderful donations. We now have only 15 sections left to complete the project. The price for the fence is $3,949.00. Family and Friends of the cemetery install the fence at no charge. Although we do have some funds dedicated to the fence fund we fall very short of our needs. Your donations are welcomed. Please send to Jackie Wilson, 9200 Chisholm Road, Pensacola, FL. 32514.

The limbs are gone, well most of them. Jackie, Jim and I spent the weekend feeding limbs into a wood chipper. Of course we picked a weekend that set heat records. Still some clean up to do where the limbs were if anyone feels like doing some raking and bagging. Also there is a few small piles of mulch around and a huge pile in the very back of the cemetery if anyone needs some. The limbs left by the main road have a bird nest with little ones so we will get that on later. Thanks Jim and Jackie for your help.

A huge thank you to James Beeson for choosing Whitmire Cemetery for his Eagle Scout Award Project. His project included painting the arch, cleaning up trash, raking/bagging, pressure washing and low limb cutting. He included 23 U.S. Marines from NAS for assistance. see pictures.
James then request to have his award ceremony at the cemetery two weeks later. see pictures.
His scout troop from Gulf Breeze came Memorial weekend to place flags on Veterans graves. We placed 110 flags. Mr. Joseph Thornton, a Korean War Veteran assisted in the placement of the flags. We were honored to have Mr. Thornton and the Scouts participate in the Flag placement.
