Our Locations

MSMSVM - Mississippi Veterans Memorial Cemetery

I wanted to make everyone aware of the road closure leading to our facility.  Due to multiple bridge replacement projects currently underway, there is no access to the cemetery from Newton on Highway 80.  The alternate route is Exit 115 off I-20 onto Highway 503.  Go south on Highway 503 to Hickory, then turn right onto Highway 80, go west approximately 5 miles to cemetery entrance.
