Veterans Gardens I & II

"It is a privilege for Kirby & Family to assist a veteran's family."
                                             - Elton Kirby, U.S. Army Sgt. 1966-68

Kirby’s Tucker Memorial Cemetery has always reserved a Veterans Garden providing the honors due veterans for serving our nation. In addition, we opened a second cemetery section for veterans and their families in the fall of 2004. At Kirby & Family, there is a difference. Founded here, we have offered special services to veterans since 1976
