The 66 religious symbols the VA will put on tombstones Check out the photo - atheist made the list.
I don’t plan on being buried. I’ve requested cremation and have my ashes placed in a glass bottle and in the Atlantic Ocean. I’ve also requested no kind of service, no mass, no funeral, no nothing. There will be certain people my relatives will call and let them know that I passed, and that is as far as it will go.
Pretty much me, except my body goes to med school first. And, I go to a river.
Atheist has been on the list for quite a while.
I'm supposed to be buried in the Jewish part of a cemetery. I wonder if they'd put the atheist symbol on my stone.
If a vet, the stone can be ordered. Would the cemetery object? The cemetery usually doesn't know what is coming, as far as I know. There may be some clause in a contract.
If you request it then you should get one, your family and loved ones should respect your last requests.
