“Bartley Funeral home worked with our family on the service, to make it a memorable experience. They do go the extra mile to do the very best. Our family has had numerous family services over the years with Bartley, and I am blessed for all the staff.”
“I thought they did a good job with the details of the service and my mom looked beautiful. Unfortunately, they lost a watch that was a family heirloom and the woman assistant tried to say we didn’t bring it in. I hope in the future they create an intake form and something a little more organized as to what was given for the deceased to wear etc etc. because I would hate for this to happen to another family.”

The funeral home arranges the honors detail by contacting the deceased's last unit or the nearest active-duty installation of the appropriate branch and submitting the DD-214 to verify eligibility.
For requests less than 72 hours from service time, families can call the Department of Defense's expedited honors line at 1-877-MIL-HONR (1-877-645-4667). See the full honors protocol.
