Veteran’s Farewell™

At McGuinness Funeral Home we feel it is our duty to take extra care of those who have served our country. That is why we’ve created the Veteran’s Farewell™, a unique style of service designed to provide a lasting salute to those men and women who put their lives on the line to defend our country’s honor and freedom.

The Veteran’s Farewell™ begins with a personalized service at our funeral home; complete with a visitation time that celebrates the life of the deceased veteran. A special Video Tribute will be created to honor their service to our country. American flags will be proudly displayed and you will be able to choose from a selection of patriotic themed caskets.

The graveside ceremony will be held at one of our two veterans cemeteries in the area; Gloucester County Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Williamstown or Brigadier General William C. Doyle Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Arneytown. 

In both cases, an Honor Guard will be present to pay their respects and the family will be presented with an American flag in a flag case as a lasting tribute to their loved one.

For naval veterans we offer a unique option of conducting the entire ceremony aboard the USS New Jersey docked on the Camden waterfront.

Honor your loved one in a way that will form a wonderful lasting memory for your family and friends.
