Basic Services of Funeral Director and Staff This fee for our basic services will be added to the total cost of the funeral arrangements you select. This fee is already included in our charges for direct cremations, immediate burials, and forwarding or receiving of remains. Overhead expenses relative to our facility and operations, such as occupancy, administrative and equipment costs.
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.
A funeral is a declaration of a death that has occurred and a testimony to a life that has been lived. What is embalming? Embalming is the replacing of the fluids in the deceased with chemicals for disinfection and cosmetic purposes. The temporary preservation is to permit the body to be present for the period of the funeral, including the visitation or wake, and for the funeral service.

Thank you to everyone at Gosselin Funeral Home for helping to make a very difficult and stressful time in our lives manageable. The passing of our beloved father became a ceremony to honor, pay tribute and to say our final goodbyes to Dad. Fallon and the staff at Gosselin all gave us their professional, understanding and sensitivity and the entire Faber family is grateful. Thank you!

Mary Ann and her staff provided excellent service. We had our son's memorial service at Gosselin's. From the initial counseling over the phone to the funeral day to the post-service misc stuff, they were consistently considerate, patient and professional. Immediately we felt we could trust her and we felt she would be very good to our son. She did handle everything very well. We are glad that we chose Gosselin. Thank you Mary Ann and Joel
