Huntsville Home Depot honors the fallen with memorial on Memorial Day

This is the first year associates and managers at the Home Depot on Memorial Parkway created a memorial.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — A Home Depot in Huntsville paid a special tribute to our heroes no longer with us. Employees at the Home Depot off 1035 Memorial Parkway NW used a parking space as a memorial.

It's decorated with plants and the American flag. This is the store's first year creating this tribute.  

The Associate Store Manager says this is just another way to pay their respects.

"Just show our appreciation to all the veterans that paid the ultimate sacrifice to provide the freedoms that all of us enjoy, especially during this time with all the COVID-19 and all of that going on in our country. It was just a little thing we wanted to do to show our appreciation to all the vets that are no longer here with us today," says Glenn Behrens.

Home Depot also honors the Armed Forces by participating in several projects for veterans throughout the year.
