“In our time of need, Richard R. Robinson funeral home provided the most professional, personal and eloquent service for my mother. They did an excellent job from start to finish. They constantly stayed in contact with me guiding me every step of the way. I was allowed to mourn and grieve those first few days knowing my mother would be taken care of in every aspect. She was beautiful. The casket was exactly what we ordered and they provided little extras that made everything okay. Our family and friends really enjoyed the service and we were all blown away with the saxophone musical. Thank you Richard, Nicole and the entire staff for making us feel a part of your family. I pray you continue to be a blessing to our community here in Macon and Middle Georgia. Its refreshing to have something new in the neighborhood!!! Much love from the family of the late Ms. Frances Wilma Moore Harris.”

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.
