The basic Military Funeral Honors (MFH) ceremony consists of the folding and presentation of the United States flag to the veterans' family and the playing of Taps. The ceremony is performed by a funeral honors detail consisting of at least two members of the Armed Forces. The Funeral Honors rendered to you or your veteran will be determined by the status of the veteran.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) furnishes upon request, at no charge to the applicant, a Government headstone or marker for the unmarked grave of any deceased eligible veteran in any cemetery around the world, regardless of their date of death. When the grave is already marked, applicants will have the option to apply for either a traditional headstone or marker, or a new device (available spring 2009).
A United States flag is provided, at no cost, to drape the casket or accompany the urn of a deceased veteran who served honorably in the U. S. Armed Forces. It is furnished to honor the memory of a veteran's military service to his or her country. Generally, the flag is given to the next-of-kin, as a keepsake, after its use during the funeral service.
Funerals fill an important role for those mourning the loss of a loved one. By providing surviving family and friends with an atmosphere of care and support in which to share thoughts and feelings about death, funerals are the first step in the healing process. It is the traditional way to recognize the finality of death.

Very professional top notch mortuary and funeral service. They worked with me to create a great memorial video photo montage. They videoed the funeral nicely. Nice website with obituaries, photo montage and video of funeral service. Helped us out greatly in our time of need. Kyle and Craig and the rest are real pros.

After losing three immediate family members and using three different funeral homes, this was by far the most unprofessional. After 8 months I'm still shocked at how we were treated. There was absolutely no compassion, kind words or anything that pertained to professionalism. The main concern of these people was who's paying and how we were paying. I could go on but I'll stop with this: BEWARE, if they treat the living like we were treated, how do they treat the bodies of our loved ones?
