Veteran Benefits

At Farrington Mortuary, we recognize and honor the sacrifice of our nation's veterans. We are committed to assisting families in accessing the benefits their loved ones have earned through their service to our country. Veteran benefits may include:

1. Military Funeral Honors: A ceremony performed by an honor guard detail, providing folding and presenting of the United States flag, as well as the playing of Taps.
2. Burial in a National Cemetery: Eligible veterans can be laid to rest in one of the nation's 142 national cemeteries, with benefits including a gravesite, opening and closing of the grave, perpetual care, a government headstone or marker, and a burial flag.
3. Monetary Benefits: Families may be eligible for a burial allowance, reimbursement of transportation costs, and a presidential memorial certificate.
4. Veterans Affairs (VA) Memorial Services: Additional honors and benefits may be available through the Department of Veterans Affairs, including a headstone or marker for private cemeteries, a burial flag, and a medallion for placement on a privately purchased headstone or marker.

We are here to guide you through the process of accessing these benefits and ensuring your loved one receives the recognition they deserve for their service to our country. Contact us today to learn more.
