National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children
Dayton's historic Woodland Cemetery is one of only two gravesites in Ohio, and only 47 in the United States, where the remains of aborted babies are buried. There, Dayton Right to Life Society maintains two gravesites where a total of seven aborted infants are buried. Each year in September we host a community memorial service to mourn these children and remember all the victims of abortion. Access The National Day of Remembrance website here. See a map of the main gravesite at Woodland Cemetery. Our Woodland gravesites are also the location for community Roe v. Wade events each January.
