Idaho State Veterans Cemetery

Description

In 2004 the State of Idaho, Division of Veterans Services, established a State Veterans Cemetery on 76.5 acres adjacent to the Dry Creek Cemetery in Boise, Idaho. To date, it is the only veterans' cemetery in the state. The cemetery landscape and committal shelter have been designed to provide a place of respectful remembrance for veterans and their families. Committal services are conducted in the shelter Monday - Friday and can include military honors and the final, brief good-byes. Eligible veterans and their spouses may choose from a variety of plot types for both casket and urn interments. Each interment is registered in the "Nationwide Gravesite Locator" so that visitors may find their loved ones in any veterans' cemetery across the nation.
