The Sprowl, took care of our family and made sure things ran smoothly . Heather was extremely helpful , attentive caring and we felt as if she was apart of the family . Heather made sure everything was taking care of from start to finish. Coming all the way from California to attend a funeral. It was a beautiful facility and staff checked in, constantly to make sure everything was running accordingly. The facility is 100% clean, organized and has great excellent customer service. Highly recommended if service is needed.

Special thanks to Heather, she was extremely helpful. She jumped in and helped serve my family during a needed time. To add, Elder Malone spoke an amazing message for my father’s service.

Losing my cousin in December was one of the most difficult experiences I had to face. This was my first time dealing with funeral arrangements, and on top of the grief, I had the overwhelming responsibility of arranging for my cousin’s remains to be transported to our native country, Pakistan. I had countless questions and needed immediate assistance. I contacted several funeral homes, but almost all of them told me it would take weeks to send his remains overseas, and most could not even meet with me until the following day to begin the process. During such a painful and urgent time, that was incredibly discouraging. Then I was guided to Sprowl Funeral & Cremation Care. From the moment I spoke with Mr. Lloyd Sprowl, everything changed. He met with me on short notice the same day, answered every question with patience and compassion, and made what seemed like an impossible process feel manageable. He accommodated all of our religious obligations with respect and understanding, and through his diligence and professionalism, we were able to take my cousin home within just a few days. If you are looking for someone who truly understands different faiths, cultures, and the urgency that can come with international arrangements, look no further. I highly, highly recommend Sprowl Funeral & Cremation Care.

Mr. Loyd and his employees were very helpful and attentive. They made the whole process a breeze and took wonderful care of my mother. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that asks.

I was only here as a funeral guest not a customer but I can say that the staff was not present. Meaning, I did not see them consoling the grieving family members nor assisting them in any way. I can say, due to new construction the facility is very clean and presentable.

EverSettled · After the Veteran Funeral

The veteran's spouse may qualify for VA Dependency & Indemnity Compensation.

DIC is a tax-free monthly benefit for surviving spouses, dependent children, and (in some cases) parents of veterans whose death is service-connected. EverSettled walks veteran families through DIC eligibility, survivor pension, life-insurance claims, probate, and the federal-account paperwork that follows.

How honors are coordinated

Military funeral honors are guaranteed at no cost for any veteran discharged under conditions other than dishonorable. 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.
