Disclaimer: my parents, step-father, a niece, and several friends’ close family are buried in Biloxi National Cemetery. It is located on the grounds of the Biloxi V. A. Hospital. This is also the hospital where my oldest brother went to get his MRSA treated Prayers for My Brother Fighting MRSA. It’s originally where my brother-in-law planned on being buried, but he’s now being buried in a family cemetery, but since he originally planned on being buried here, I decided it should be this week’s Tombstone Tuesdays post. It has over 28,400 burials, inurnments, etc. on its grounds. It’s a pretty flat cemetery, or at least the parts I have visited are flat. I am reposting this today Biloxi National Cemetery, Biloxi, Mississippi – Tombstone Tuesdays November 19, 2019 as I had a chance to visit it earlier this month and the changes were unexpected and made it hard to find my parents graves.
