Albert Young and his wife, Margaret started Young Funeral Home in 1916, where it still exists today. During his younger years, he lost a playmate and served as a pall bearer for his friend. This had a great effect on him and the decision for his future profession. He was determined to dedicate his life to the profession of a funeral directing---helping and serving others.
Thinking about the inevitability of one's death is subject that few like to consider. For many, actually moving ahead with the pre-planning or pre-paying for their funeral is even more difficult to act on. When one begins to understand the financial and emotional pressure that a funeral can thrust on our loved ones, it becomes clear that planning in advance is a considerate and responsible thing to do.
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.

They do not fly an American flag.
We recently attended a funeral of a Vietnam Veteran who also retired from Rochester City Fire.
Other veterans provided a 21 gun salute with taps.
Very disappointed with this facility, extremely hot inside, no water cooler and limited parking.
No respect for fallen veterans what is this country coming too!

AJ, the owner and a gentleman, arranged my Mother’s funeral with noteworthy kindness and candor. Though it may be his business, at no point did I feel like it was a business transaction. His demeanor was sincere and welcoming, and his actions conveyed a genuine concern with the well-being of my siblings and I. This eased the pain somewhat, while planning the funeral for our Mother, who had unexpectedly passed only a few days before.
A great friend of mine, who is a mortician, inquired as to how everything had gone with planning afterward; she was very pleased with how he handled our arrangements
