A presidential memorial service for Pres. Rutherford B. Hayes held Oct. 7, 2012, in Fremont, Ohio. Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt started the practice of having military representatives place wreaths on his behalf at areas outside Washington, D.C. Pres. Lyndon Johnson set the official tradition on Aug. 11, 1966.
