Join our historic interpreters as they celebrate the life and honor the death of a fictional Walnut Hill resident with a re-created funeral. In the morning, visit the Tangen Home, prepared with a period-style coffin and funeral drapery. Walk in the funeral procession led by a horse-drawn hearse to New Hope Cemetery for a moving memorial service. Exact time of funeral to be announced. All activities included with General Admission.
