“From the moment we walked in to the very first call we made, Johnson-Nosek Funeral Home was nothing short of incredible. Anna and Frank were beyond helpful during one of the hardest times in my life and my fiancé’s. They didn’t just guide us through the process, they went above and beyond to truly understand and capture exactly what we envisioned for honoring our beloved 4 year old son. At no point did anything feel transactional. Every interaction felt genuine, compassionate. Anna and Frank created an organic, caring experience that allowed us to honor our son in the most beautiful and meaningful way. We will forever be grateful for the kindness, patience, and love they showed our family during such an unimaginable loss.”

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.
