Instructions for day of service
- On the day of the service, please arrive 15-30 minutes prior to the start time.
- When entering the main entrance of the cemetery, look for a sign on the right- hand side
that says “ALL FUNERALS”
- When you see the sign that says, “ALL FUNERALS”, turn into that drive area and you will
see our cemetery volunteers wearing “BLUE BASEBALL CAPS”, let them know who your loved one
is and what time the service is scheduled for.
- They will line your vehicle up in that area with the rest of your party as they enter the
cemetery.
- When the services team is ready for you at the committal shelter, you will drive your
vehicle behind a golf cart to the shelter where the service will take place.
- Once you arrive at the shelter, give the Remains and the Flag to the Military members and
the VSO (Veteran Service Organization) Leader will escort you to your seat to start the
ceremony.
