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 highly recommend Buckland Funeral Home when planning a service for your love one. The staff is very professional from the beginning to the end. Our family never felt rushed or pressured when making decisions and planning a service. The Buckland staff took their time and explained the process with love, and compassion while we were making arrangements for our love ones. Unfortunately our family and friends has used their services on multiple occasions. Every time we used their services it was an excellent experience. The staff was very professional, and understanding, they showed and gave us a

The Buckland family and staff were friendly, compassionate, kind, and professional from start to finish. They handled everything with the sensitivity and ease needed in the difficult area of death. The day we had to come and sign off on documents, select casket, and complete everything was emotionally difficult. However, my brother and I never felt rushed, prodded, or like it was business as usual. All the logistical items were clear, and they took the time to explain everything in detail. They definitely took our feelings and emotions seriously and that was very much appreciated. Buckland Funeral

I was extremely impressed, grateful and was comforted by the professionalism and expertise of the Buckland Funeral Home staff. Ryan Buckland and his wife Kye handled my husband Bert's arrangements and they were able to bring a sense of calm to an overwhelmingly stressful and devastating time in our lives. I highly recommend the Buckland Funeral Home and will use their services for our family's final resting arrangements. I thank you, my family thanks you, God Bless you.

I was so impressed with this funeral home and would highly recommend. What could have been a very stressful time was made easier due to the caring and knowledgeable owners. I dealt with Kye and she was so patient and had such compassion. She even came to my home to make things easier, and I truly appreciated that level of service. Realizing people may not always be clear headed when handling so many details, she offered valuable suggestions/options. It made the process flow smoothly. I can’t thank the staff enough for their professionalism and attention to detail.
