Delivery Donation for Wreaths Across America

February 2016

In cooperation with the Truckload Carriers Association, National Carriers participated in the 2015 distribution of military wreaths through the Wreaths Across America organization. 4,347 wreaths were delivered in locations across Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma.
Donating the cost associated with the delivery, http://www.nationalcarriers.com/. National Carriers chose retired US Army veteran, David Lamica to represent the company during the deliveries. Lamica considered it an honor to be at the wheel when making this group of special deliveries.
Carol Martinez lost her son in 2008 while he served in Fallujah, Iraq. She met Lamica at thehttp://www.museumtrail.org/homelake-veterans-history-museum.htm. Colorado State Veterans Cemetery in Homelake, CO. She was the volunteer who oversaw the unloading and presentation of 135 boxes of wreaths.
In Ruidoso Downs, NM, Thomas Bivens accepted 43 boxes of wreaths for the Forest Lawn Cemetery and for the Fort Stanton Veterans Cemetery. Lamica's next delivery was in Lovington, NM where Lajuan Hayes, coordinating representative, was joined by her son who currently serves in the US Marines. Resthaven and Lovington Cemeteries were provided with 87 boxes of wreaths. The final New Mexico stop was at the Carlsbad Cemetery. Mrs. Jerri McTaggert accepted 33 boxes as her husband helped unload.

They eagerly unloaded the 45 boxes of wreaths to service the HYPERLINK "http://www.cemeteries-of-tx.com/Wtx/Yoakum/cemetery/DenverCity.html" Denver City Memorial Cemetery. After a quick thank you, Lamica was off to his final stops in Oklahoma.
