family-funeral & cremation honors veterans

Those who have sacrificed their lives in the line of duty deserve prestigious honor. At Family-Funeral & Cremation, we pledge to dignify veterans while respecting the wishes of their loved ones. 

By providing discounted pricing and special touches for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice and their family members, we are dedicated to ensuring members of the armed forces receive the honorable funeral ceremony they earned by serving this country. We have fostered an extraordinary relationship with the Department of Veteran Affairs and offer many benefits and honors fit for service members' funerals. 

These benefits include:
  • a military funeral honors ceremony, which is conducted by two or more uniformed service members, with at least one member of the veteran’s branch of service. 
  • folding and presenting of a burial flag to the next of kin 
  • a headstone or cemetery marker at no cost 
  • the playing of the Taps 

Additionally, service members are entitled to a burial at a national veteran's cemetery or a monetary benefit towards burial at a private cemetery.

Family-Funeral & Cremation is proud to orchestrate many burial ceremonies at the Barrancas National Cemetery, which encompasses 94.9 beautiful acres within the Naval Air Station Pensacola. 

Burial at Barrancas National Cemetery is open to: 
  • all members of the armed forces who have met a minimum active duty service requirement and were discharged under conditions other than dishonorable
  • A Veteran's spouse, widow or widower, minor dependent children*, and under certain conditions, unmarried adult children with disabilities
  • Members of the reserve components of the armed forces who die while on active duty or who die while on training duty, or were eligible for retired pay
*Eligible spouses and children may be buried even if they predecease the Veteran

Our funeral staff is trained with a deep understanding of proper methods to create a dignified memorial service for members of the armed forces, and honor veterans based on traditions ingrained by their unique military branches.
