On Monday, May 31, 2021, Archbishop Jose Gomez celebrated Memorial Day Mass in the Chapel of the Risen Christ at Holy Cross Cemetery & Mortuary in Culver City. Concelebrating with the Archbishop was the Rev. Msgr. Terrance Fleming with the assistance of Deacon Alberto Reyes. As Mass began, Honor Guard Team 3 Los Alamitos performed a Color Ceremony followed by a beautiful a cappella rendition of God Bless America provided by Elisha Soronio. Bouquets of white roses were presented and blessed in honor of those who have passed into eternal life. A folded American flag was placed with the flowers in honor of those who gave their lives in service to our country. Cantor Christopher Avendano's remarkable recessional of America the Beautiful was punctuated by Larry Grossman playing Taps at the conclusion of Mass.
