The Alabama Poppy Project was established as a way to honor service members who have died.

PRATTVILLE, Ala. - There is so much symbolism on display at Prattville’s Spillway Park. The community and service members have been marching through thousands of ceramic poppies covering the grass, all in remembrance of service members they’ve lost.goes up every year in time for Memorial Day as a tribute to those who have served and lost their lives. It’s a project that grew from one family’s grief.

Steven Hansen described the project as a way “to help not only remember that there’s more than just an inscription on a headstone somewhere, that there’s a story behind every one of these people.” “It’s a wonderful way to share that legacy, keep the memory alive of our fallen heroes,” said Julianne Hansen.

“When we hear individuals tell us about how this makes them feel, how they’re so grateful to be able to honor their loved ones in a very reverent, moving way, it’s priceless. It really is,” Julianne Hansen said.
