We are collecting worn, tattered or torn American flags and will use our facilities to provide a respectful retirement.  Our  “Flag Retirement Program” is another way we support our community by helping families whose loved ones have served our country.

Most people are not sure of what to do with a flag that has seen better days. Some continue to fly their aged flag or have purchased a new flag while holding onto their old one.  We are collecting those worn, tattered or torn American flags that are no longer suitable for display and are no longer fit to serve the nation. 

At the time of a veteran’s death whose family has chosen cremation, permission will be sought to drape that veteran with an unusable flag. This allows for the retirement of a flag in a most dignified manner and honors both the veteran’s service to their country and the American Flag. Upon receipt of the cremated remains of their veteran, acknowledgement shall be expressed stating the last deed of service for that flag, which was to drape their veteran in the cremation process.

This commemorative measure honors those Americans who have served to promote peace for fellow countrymen living under the high flying flag… in the land they love… the home of the free and the brave.
