VETERANS

view our video to learn more

At Flower Funeral Home, our staff is trained to handle the details of making burial and cremation arrangements for veterans.

Did you know that military honors are available to all veterans regardless of rank or location of burial? And, were you aware that the military does not accept payment for these services under any circumstance?

To establish veteran eligibility you can have us obtain your DD 214 Form which is the Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty. For veteran's benefits you must have any status other than dishonorable discharge. For information about how to go about receiving this document, go to: https://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records

Taps and Flags
If you are a Veteran with an honorable discharge we can arrange for the military to provide Taps for you at the graveside and for a flag to be presented to the family by an honor guard for the family to keep.

Presidential Memorial Certificate
We can also write to the government and obtain a Presidential Memorial Certificate for you and your family. We submit both a death certificate and a copy of your honorable discharge to the address below:

U.S. Department of Veteran's Affairs
National Cemetery Administration (403A)
810 Vermont Ave., NW
Washington, D.C. 20420

To read more about the Certificate you may go to http://www.cem.va.gov/CEM/pmc.asp

Honor Guards
We are able to arrange for military honor guards for Veteran's funerals.

Grave Marker
We can assist you in obtaining a grave marker for the cemetery where you chose to be buried. Just let us know you are interested in a marker and we will prepare the documentation for you or for more information you can write to:

     Memorial Programs Services (403)
     Department of Veterans Affairs
     810 Vermont Ave., N.W.
     Washington, DC 20420
