JFK Grave to Have Classic Monument
Plans for a white marble terrace and a low plain monument mark John F. Kennedy’s grave with an eternal flame funded largely by the government. The grave site at Arlington National Cemetery features a grass plot, slate tablet, kneeling prayer step, and tablets for Kennedy children, with construction aimed to start in fall 1965 and run about a year. The Kennedy family expects to cover only a portion of costs, with Congress asked to appropriate most funds.
