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.

My dad passed away early morning on 1/1/22. They were able to pick him up quickly. I called around to several places, CDACS was about $800 cheaper than the lowest quote I got from the others. Financially, this took a huge load off of my shoulders and gave me one less thing to stress about. They were very friendly and helpful on the phone. While my dad was in NY, I live in GA, and they were kind enough to ship his remains to me. I'm grateful they made things easier for me during a hard time. I highly recomment them.

In a difficult time for my family and I were unable to travel to put my uncle to rest in person, Jim at Capital District Affordable Cremation Services, LLC went above and beyond to assist me over the phone and take care of my family's needs. Once I was able to make the trip to Troy from New York City, he met me in person to give me my uncle's belongings. Capital District Affordable Cremation Services, LLC are reasonably priced and professional. Under these circumstances great customer service goes a long way and my family and I are very appreciative of the great service Jim provided!
