At Veterans Funeral Care, every veteran is cremated with a “retired” flag.
It honors the veteran and provides one more patriotic duty for the flag.
Our “Retire Your Flag” Program was featured nationally on MSNBC.com on Flag Day 2010.
There is no charge for this service.
***An urn is not included with these three packages and will need to be selected at the time of arrangements.
Our Direct Cremation package does not offer a viewing/visitation however we do offer a Final Goodbye Viewing for 5 immediate family members at our Care Center. There is no embalming and only a very limited time that the deceased may be transferred out of refrigeration (20 minutes.) There is an additional fee of $200 for a Final Goodbye Viewing.
In the interest of full disclosure while minimizing movement of the deceased, the identification occurs in the required container that will shelter the deceased prior to cremation and will be later consumed in the cremation process. In the case of Autopsied remains, embalming is necessary (additional fee).
Cremated Remains: To Scatter, Store, Display, or Bury?
When most people think of cremation, they think of an urn holding ashes. The ashes that are a result of cremation are called cremated remains.
Many people do choose to keep their loved one with them by displaying an urn housing the cremated remains in their home or wearing a piece of commemorative jewelry with part of the cremated remains inside. But, those are not the only options.
You may wish to have a traditional funeral with visitation prior to the cremation or have a conventional graveside service with burial afterwards. You may also choose to have the cremated remains scattered at sea.
These are all possible and we are here to assist you.
