In order to have the burial with honors it has to be done on a weekday because the VA is closed on weekends. I chose the latest time they had available in the day.

This will be a small, mausoleum side memorial.

Per the Cemetery:
1. All vehicles arriving for services will park in the designated spaces next to the 7 service flags before the Administration Building. The vehicle bringing the veteran should park directly in front of the Administration Building and only one person should bring the cremains and the flag into the office.
2. The cemetery director will proceed to the committal shelter, ensure the military is ready, and start the music (the music can be heard throughout the cemetery). At that time the procession will drive together to the committal shelter where the military honors will be rendered and will have the opportunity to say a few words.
*Please remember the vehicle carrying the veteran should be the first vehicle to arrive at the committal shelter to ensure the veteran receives his/her proper salute.*
3. The entire service takes approximately 20 minutes and the funeral or cemetery director will make the announcement at the end of the committal for everyone to return to their vehicles to drive home.

They did say we could stay for a bit if anyone wanted to say a few words or share a memory. He didn't want me making a "fuss" about this so I think something short but impactful is the best way to honor him.

The burial will be recorded for those who can't make the livestream.
