Securing Your Benefits

Honorably discharged veterans of the United States Armed Forces and their spouses are entitled to free burial or cremation interment at a National Cemetery, as well as other funeral services. These benefits can be worth up to $7,000 per person.

Having helped hundreds of veterans and their families apply for burial and memorial benefits, most funeral professionals have become experts in the process. Your local funeral home knows exactly what your benefits include, what they don’t include, and the best way to secure them for you and your family. They want to help you take advantage of every available benefit and will be there to support you through every step of the process.

Although you may qualify for certain burial benefits, they are not automatic. You must provide documentation of your military service to secure benefits and meet eligibility requirements for burial in national or state veterans’ cemeteries. Our memorial experts will confirm your qualifications to ensure everything’s in order.

Your memorial and burial benefits can easily be incorporated into your advance funeral plans. You’ll be amazed by the peace of mind you and your family gain knowing that all of your arrangements will be carried out just as you have directed. Additionally, you’ll give your loved ones the invaluable gift of a memorial service that lets them focus on remembrance and healing instead of logistics, finances, and trying to communicate with various veterans organizations.
