In 2001 American Veterans Post 66 dedicated a memorial at the cemetery honoring all LGBTQ veterans.[5] In 2018, the state passed California Assembly Bill 2439 designating the memorial as California's official LGBTQ veterans memorial. In recognition, a second plaque was affixed to the monument. The memorial is an obelisk of South Dakotan mahogany granite with the logo of American Veterans for Equal Rights on it.[6]
