Curt DeBaun, Sr. and Myrtle DeBaun began in business in 1925 in Prairie Creek, Indiana. As with starting any new business, times were tough for Curt and Myrtle, and with the onset of the Great Depression, things only got worse. Like their neighbors, they made do, and accepted such things as chickens and pigs for payment of funerals.
Losing somebody you love is one of the hardest moments of your life. Add sudden logistical and financial decisions and the pain only intensifies. Advance funeral planning is the key to creating the positive end-of-life experience your loved ones deserve. The choices you make today will protect them from unnecessary financial and emotional strain, giving them a clear plan so that they can begin healing when they'll need it most.
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.

I would recommend Debaun Funeral Home to anyone needing this service and wanting to feel like you are being taken care of by family. I recently lost my father and from the time I first had contact with a member of their establishment I felt like they cared for me like I was their family. It has been over a month now and they still check on me to see if I am doing ok. They are the best.

The thoughtfulness, caring, emotional support and family feeling that we had at De Baun was exactly what my family needed when our father passed away. They helped us throughout our difficult time and afterwards checking on how we were doing and if there was anything they could do for us. They have been there for us and we feel they will continue to help us if we need it

We selected DeBaun Funeral at random as we need to engage a funeral service right away. We are glad we did. Amy and her staff are awesome! They are very gentle and sensitive of the situation and very respectful of the family’s feelings. Their caskets and vaults are very well made. They are very accommodating to the family’s wishes and are very patient when there are unexpected changes. The make-up looked very natural. Their services are executed professionally and gently. I am one who is very hard to please but DeBaun has met and even exceeded all of our expectations .

DeBaun Funeral Home and Crematory recently assisted my family with the death of my father. They made a painful and emotional situation relatively easy for us. They were kind and compassionate and went above and beyond. Amy McMullen was wonderful! She ordered jewelry from Legacytouch with my father’s finger print and his hand written note that we will cherish forever.
