College Station Memorial Cemetery & Aggie Field of Honor3800 Raymond Stotzer Parkway | 979.764.5049 | fieldofhonor.cstx.gov

The College Station Memorial Cemetery is made up of a total of 56 acres, with 20 acres designated to the Aggie Field of Honor. The beautifully designed facility includes an Information Center, a Committal Shelter, an Aggie Field of Honor and a City of College Station Columbarium and standard burial plots in each location.

Another special feature is the Spirit Gate that honors the life and spirit of those Aggies who have passed on. As you look through the gate to Kyle Field there is a sense of connection between this final resting place and the place where these Aggies were educated and launched their lives. And one only needs to be an Aggie in Spirit to call this your final home. Former Students, friends, family and anyone who has a love of this university and its community are welcome.

College Station Cemetery2530 Texas Avenue South | 979.764.5049 | cstx.gov/cemeteries

The College Station Cemetery was created in 1948 from thirty-one acres bought near the Shiloh community, approximately two miles south of Texas A&M on Highway 6. That tract surrounded an existing cemetery, which had been deeded to the Methodist Church in 1870 by W.G. and Josephine Rector. The A&M Methodist Church, in 1948, turned over those four acres to College Station to be incorporated into the city cemetery. In 1973, the cemetery was decreased in size when the City decided to designate eighteen of the acres for the creation of Bee Creek Park.
