“You never know what to expect when something like this happens and you need the funeral home. So it was really nice to have someone that helped us with everything. The service was simple but very nice and it didn’t stop there. They’ve messaged me they have sent me things in the mail. They sent me a beautiful ornament at Christmas time with a nice poem that I will cherish. They went above and beyond”

How to request military funeral honors
By law (10 U.S.C. § 1491), an eligible veteran's funeral can include, on request, an honors detail of at least two service members who fold and present the U.S. flag to the family and play Taps. The funeral director usually makes the request and will need the veteran's DD214 or other discharge papers.
VA suggests asking at least 48 to 72 hours before the service. More on what honors include and how to request them.
