Description of Memorial: This memorial is located inside Royal Palm South Cemetery. It's a large cemetery on the Southeast corner of 1st Avenue South and 58th Street South. The headstones are in a circle (hence the name) and the interesting aspect is how the headstones are not all facing the same direction. There are many World War I and II as well as the Spanish American War.
