Union Ridge Cemetery is the final resting place for more than 400 veterans. Each year, we host a special Veterans Day event, featuring a guest speaker and a traditional cannon salute to honor and pay tribute
to our veterans.

Below is the original section of the cemetery with some of the oldest and grandest
oak trees in the City of Chicago.
