The Boldt Funeral Home staff has been specially trained to serve our Veterans and their families that have served our country.

Our staff works directly with the Veteran or their family in direct communication with local Veterans Service Officer, State and National Department of Veterans Affairs.  Below is information from the Department of Veterans Affairs our funeral home will assist the veteran's family in completing:

"Requests for burial in a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) national cemetery cannot be made via the Internet.

 

The VA does not make funeral arrangements or perform cremations.  Families should make these arrangements with a funeral provider or cremation office.  Any item or service obtained from a funeral home or cremation office will be at the families expense.”
