Many families don’t realize that veterans may be entitled to a free government-issued grave marker or headstone through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

To apply, paperwork is required, including:
• DD-214 discharge papers
• Death certificate
• VA application forms

There are several memorial options available through the VA, including bronze plaques, flat granite markers, upright granite markers, and bronze medallions.

Families often work directly with their local VA office or print the online paperwork, fill it out and fax or mail the application.
Some funeral homes will assist families with the application process.

We believe families deserve clear guidance during difficult times, and understanding available veteran benefits can help ease both stress and expense while ensuring service and sacrifice are properly honored.

Every memorial we create includes a MonuMark QR code, attached and activated for you (a $60 value). A simple scan opens a space where family and friends can share photos, stories, and messages.

Just one more way we help keep memories alive.
