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).

Report
Without the consent of the family, John Lalumiere (the Managing Director at Keene-Brown Funeral Home) took it upon himself to submit paperwork to the Veterans Association for the grave marker of my father. Obviously he is unfamiliar with the rules and regulations of the cemeteries that he deals with as he left out information that the family was allowed to have engraved on the stone. Our family submitted paperwork to the Veterans Association with the CORRECT information, but we kept getting denials of our request for a veterans grave marker all the while unaware that this paperwork was submitted
