What funeral benefits are available for deceased veterans?
Honorably discharged deceased veterans qualify for a free monument or marker for installation at a cemetery or mausoleum (Installation costs are the responsiblity of the family), and an American burial flag which can drape the veteran’s casket or be displayed in the casket or with an urn. Both of these benefits are supplied by the federal government. Our directors will be happy to apply for these benefits at the family’s request. These same deceased veterans also qualify for military honors either at the cemetery, church or funeral home. We will make arrangements for military funeral honors at the family’s request. Families of some deceased veterans qualify for monetary burial benefits.
