Veterans Benefits
Carlisle-Branson Funeral Home supports our troops and respect the sacrifices made by veterans and their families. We also work very closely with all National Cemeteries in New York 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 Carlisle-Branson Funeral Home we assist with completing all the paperwork required by the Veterans Administration to claim earned benefits, to make the process easy for your family.

Chris and his entire organization did a wonderful job with mom’s funeral. Mom had deteriorated in the final weeks of her life, Carlisle Branson gave her dignity back, she was so pretty at the viewing, I know she would have been very happy with how good she looked. Thank you all for the great job and kindness you showed my whole family from beginning to the end. Sincerely, Alice, Ron, Steve, Rick Overton, and families.
