Lake Como Cemetery will honor those over thirty-two military veterans and freemasons within the cemetery with flags and flowers.

The friends of the cemetery descendants hope to establish an annual recognition event going forward.

On Veterans Day, we honor our Nation's veterans, who have given so much to protect our freedoms and the freedom of others around the globe. They represent the highest ideals of our country. While we can never fully repay the debt we owe these heroes, we will honor their service and provide them the care and support they deserve.

Currently in the state of Texas, more than 1.5 million veterans reside within our great state, and our state cemeteries still maintain acres of the consecrated land with casketed sites and garden niches for cremated remains. Fully developed, Lake Como State of Texas Historic Cemetery will provide burial space eligible for future veterans, freemasons, their descendants and those seeking locations for their interment in the Historic Lake Como Cemetery.
