Veterans Services

Those who served our country deserve a farewell worthy of their sacrifice. Calvert Funeral Home is honored to serve the veterans of West Point and the surrounding communities, coordinating the military honors and benefits they have earned so their families don't have to navigate it alone.

Military Funeral Honors


Every eligible veteran is entitled to military funeral honors, including the folding and presentation of the United States flag and the sounding of Taps. We coordinate directly with the appropriate branch of service to arrange these honors, ensuring your loved one's service is recognized with the ceremony it deserves.

VA Burial Benefits


Veterans may qualify for benefits including burial in a national cemetery, a government-furnished headstone or marker, a burial flag, and a Presidential Memorial Certificate. Our staff helps your family determine eligibility, gather the necessary documents, and file the paperwork, so no earned benefit goes unclaimed.

Honoring a Life of Service


Beyond the official honors, we help families weave a veteran's service into the story of their life — displaying medals and photographs, incorporating patriotic music and readings, and inviting fellow service members to take part. It's a farewell that honors both the person and the uniform they wore.
