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.

The people that own and work for this mortuary are some of the most compassionate. A day before my father passed away they were nothing but helpful and kind and went out of their way to bring me paperwork and do my financial stuff so I would not have to leave his side. My dad died a little after 1 am and they were here not long after the nurse called them out. I can't thank them enough for making such a sad moment a little easier.

Could not be more happy with the service for our departed loved one. The men of Burns Mortuary were truly dedicated to our needs and compassionate at the same time. Their professionalism, dedication to duty and responsibilities were unmatched. I personally can't thank you enough. Keep up the good work.
