Final Roll Call For Our Military Veterans

On this Veterans Day of 2008 we wanted to note that one of the best kept secrets to honor our Military Veterans is the Arkansas State Veterans Cemetery, located at 1501 W. Maryland Avenue, across from the NLR Airport. In 1997 the 81st Arkansas General Assembly authorized the establishment of a state veterans cemetery, with its dedication taking place in November of 2001. Take JFK Blvd. (Hwy. 107) north into Sherwood, past Kiel Avenue to Maryland Avenue and turn left. You will find well planned grounds with beautiful natural landscaping lending to the peace and quite so deserving for our soldier's final resting place.
Some of the benefits available to honorably discharged veterans of Arkansas include a head stone and internment at no cost! The veteran's spouse and any qualified dependents may be buried with them at a cost of $150.00 each. Other considerations available in recognition of their service to our Country are niches available for cremations, and if the ashes are located elsewhere a memorial can be established on the cemetery grounds for visitation viewing.
We would suggest that if this opportunity applies you take a short drive out Maryland Avenue and see for yourself what is available. Please consider calling the Cemetery Director, Mitch Shelnut, at 683-2259 or e-mail him at Mitch.Shelnut@arkansas.gov for more details. The Arkansas State Veterans Cemetery is truly a fine resting place for all honorable discharged Arkansas Veterans making their final roll call!
