Veterans Benefits

Walker Cremations, Funerals and Gatherings supports our troops and respect the sacrifices made by veterans and their families. We also work very closely with all Veteran Cemeteries in Maine to coordinate all the valuable earned benefits available to veterans.

The men and women who serve our country represent the very best of all of us, and through their courage and commitment, they keep our nation safe and free.

We are honored to help families of veterans, working to ensure that all veterans receive the honors earned through their service. We offer funerals with military honors, coordination of earned benefits, and special cemetery discounts.

At Walker Cremations, Funerals and Gatherings we assist with completing all the paperwork required by the Veterans Administration to claim earned benefits, to make the process easy for your family.
