What families have said
The cemetery grounds are well-maintained, but funeral service quality is inconsistent. One family's experience was smooth, but recent reviews detail significant problems: directors arriving late, missing ordered items like flowers and casket coverings, and unresponsive management communication.
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.
