The Alabama State Veterans Memorial Cemetery at Spanish Fort provides burial for veterans and their eligible family members, with in-ground casket and cremation burials, columbarium niches and a scattering garden. For veterans there is no cost for the burial plot or niche, opening and closing the grave, perpetual care, an inscribed gravestone, and use of the committal shelter. Burial of a dependent costs $375 plus the other funeral expenses your family or estate pays.
