Cremation for Veterans
Stewart Baxter Funeral & Memorial Services supports our troops and respect the sacrifices made by veterans and their families. We also work very closely with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and our area veteran’s cemeteries to coordinate all the valuable earned benefits available to veterans.
Those 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.

Myself and my family cannot express the promptness & kindness of Stewart Baxter when both my mother & brother passed away. They were over and above kind & accommodating. Again, I can't say thank you enough to them.
