Preplanning for Veterans

Veterans who plan ahead can make sure their wishes are respected, creating a meaningful legacy for their loved ones and communities.

Why Military Veterans Should Consider Funeral Preplanning

For veterans, funeral preplanning is more than logistics—it’s a meaningful way to honor their service, ease the burden on family, and ensure their wishes are respected.

  • Honoring Military Service
    Preplanning lets veterans specify how their service is recognized—whether through a flag-draped casket, honor guard, or branch-specific ceremonies.
  • Easing Family Stress
    By arranging details in advance, veterans spare loved ones from making difficult decisions during grief, allowing them to focus on healing.
  • Personalized Farewells
    Veterans can tailor their service with choices like music, caskets, and other meaningful touches that reflect their values and personality.
  • Financial Benefits
    Locking in costs now can prevent future financial strain. Preplanning also helps utilize veterans’ benefits for funeral expenses.
  • Peace of Mind and Harmony
    Knowing their wishes will be honored brings veterans comfort and reduces potential family conflicts by clearly documenting preferences.
  • Simplified Access to Records and Benefits
    Preplanning helps organize military documents needed for burial benefits such as national cemetery interment, government markers, and burial flags.
